This directory holds tests for the parallel HDF5 library. It is in
its "infancy" and is not integrated with the rest of the HDF5 software

Steps to compile and test:
-1) Makefile.irix64 is one that works for IRIX64 -64 platform.
- You may use it as a template to create Makefile for other platforms.

+3) "make test -f Makefile.xxxxx >&! make.out2" runs testphdf5.

+ When running "make test -f Makefile.xxxxx" the line that executes is:
+ $(RUN) testphdf5 $(TEST_FLAGS)
+
+ For the ASCI Red users:
+ In the file Makefile.ascired, the variables RUN and TEST_FLAGS are:
+
+ RUN=yod -sz 8
+ TEST_FLAGS=-f "pfs:/pfs/multi/tmp_1/your_own"
+
+ The TEST_FLAGS variable contains an optional file prefix which needs
+ to be changed to your own Intel PFS directory name.
+
+ /* change "your_own" to your own directory name */
+
+ RUN=yod -sz 8
+ TEST_FLAGS=-f "pfs:/pfs/multi/tmp_1/my_dir"
+
+ After the above change to Makefile.ascired, upon execution of
+ "make test -f Makefile.ascired >&! make.out2",
+ the prefix will be attached to filenames in testphdf5 at execution.
