Known Problems
==============
+* We discovered two problems when running collective IO parallel HDF5 tests
+ with chunking storage on ChaMPIon MPI compiler on tungsten, a linux
+ cluster at NCSA.
+ Under some complex selection cases,
+ 1) MPI_Get_element returns the wrong value.
+ 2) MPI_Type_struct also generates wrong derived data type and corrupt data
+ may be generated.
+ This only happens when turning on collective IO with chunking storage
+ with some complex selections. We haven't found these problems on other
+ MPI-IO compilers. If you encounter these problems, you may use Independent IO
+ instead.
+
+ Change the following line in your code:
+ H5Pset_dxpl_mpio(xfer_plist, H5FD_MPIO_COLLECTIVE);
+
+ to
+ H5Pset_dxpl_mpio(xfer_plist, H5FD_MPIO_INDEPENDENT);

* For SNL, spirit/liberty/thunderbird: The serial tests pass but parallel
tests failed with MPI-IO file locking message. AKC - 2007/6/25.
* On Intel 64 Linux cluster (RH 4, Linux 2.6.9) with Intel 10.0 compilers use
