Platforms supported by this release are SGI Origin 2000 +and IBM SP2. The steps are kind of unnatural and will be more +automized in the next release. If you have difficulties installing +the software in your system, please send mail to + hdfparallel@ncsa.uiuc.edu + +First, you must obtain and unpack the HDF5 source as +described in the file INSTALL. You also need to obtain the +information of the include and library paths of MPI and MPIO +software installed in your system since the parallel HDF5 library +uses them for parallel I/O access. + +For an IBM SP2 system, follow the instructions in INSTALL.ibm.sp.parallel. +For an SGI Origin 2000 system, use the following shell commands. (The +one shown here is what works in the NCSA O2K machine in which MPI library +is installed in system area but no official MPIO software is available. +I use a private installation of ROMIO for it.) + +mpi1_inc="" #mpi-1 include +mpi1_lib="" #mpi-1 library +mpio_inc="-I$HOME/ROMIO/include" #mpio include +mpio_lib="-L$HOME/ROMIO/lib/IRIX64/" #mpio library + +MPI_INC="$mpi1_inc $mpio_inc" +export MPI_INC +MPI_LIB="$mpi1_lib $mpio_lib" +export MPI_LIB + +./configure --enable-parallel |
