Software Installation Install QLogicIB-Basic with the Installer Tool

Open SM (1) should only be installed on one node in the cluster where it will be used. If desired, Type 1 for Open SM.

7.Finally, type p to start the installation.

The installer will uninstall older OFED RPMs, and then will ask for input for a series of operations. You can accept the defaults, by pressing <Enter>. Take note of the following cases:

Install MPI with prefix compatible with mpi-selector (/usr/mpi/qlogic) [y]: y

This default allows you to use the mpi-selectorto choose between different MPI implementations.

If you type y, make sure, after installation, that the environment variable $MPICH_ROOT is set to the same prefix that is used here (/usr/mpi/qlogic). When set, the $MPICH_ROOT variable allows QLogic MPI to correctly locate header and library files for MPI compilation and running parallel jobs. Typing n will cause QLogic MPI to be installed in the default /usr.

The next case is:

Configure OFED IP over IB IPV4 addresses now? [n]:

Answer y if the IB IPV4 addresses and netmasks are available, and you want to enter them now. Answer n if the IB addresses are not available or you want to add them later. IPoIB can be configured manually by following the instructions for “Configuring the IPoIB Network Interface” on page 6-2.

Finally, QLogic recommends you answer n to the following:

Enable QLogic SRP (qlgc srp) to autostart? [y]: n

Enable OFED SRP (openibd) to autostart? [y]: n

Further instructions for using SRP are given in “SRP” on page 6-4.

8.Once the install has completed, quit the installer by typing x until you have exited. After exiting, rebooting the machine is recommended.

NOTE:

If you want support for 32 bit programs, you can install the 32-bit libraries on

a64-bit system like this:

# ./INSTALL --32bit

The Installer can also be used as a command-line interface (CLI). There are numerous options for installation/upgrade/uninstallation/autostart of all the available components. Here are the available options:

./INSTALL [-r root] [-v-vv] [-a-n-U-F-u-s-i comp-e comp-E comp-D comp] [-f] [--user_configure_options ’options’]
