Software Installation
Using rpm to Install InfiniPath and OpenFabrics
5-16 Preliminary IB0056101-00 G.02
S
Note that you need to install the
InfiniPath-MPI/32bit/mpi-frontend-*.rpm even if you do not plan
to use any other 32-bit RPMs. However, you can add the other 32bit
subdirectories to the rpm command, if you need 32-bit support.
Next, install all non-prefixed RPMs:
# rpm -Uvh InfiniPath/*.rpm \
InfiniPath-Devel/infinipath-devel*.rpm \
OpenFabrics/*.rpm OpenFabrics-Devel/*.rpm \
OtherHCAs/*.rpm OtherHCAs-Devel/*.rpm \
Documentation/infinipath-doc*.rpm \
Documentation/ofed-doc*.rpm \
OtherMPIs/mpi-selector*.rpm OtherMPIs/mpitests*.rpm \
OtherMPIs/mvapich*.rpm OtherMPIs/openmpi*.rpm
Finally, install the prefixed QLogic-MPI RPMs in /usr/mpi/qlogic:
#rpm -Uvh --prefix /usr/mpi/qlogic QLogic-MPI-prefixed/*.rpm
The desired prefix should be made available in the $MPICH_ROOT
environment variable, either by global shell configuration files or through
third-party environment management utilities such as mpi-selector or the
Environment Modules. This allows QLogic MPI to correctly locate header
and library files for MPI compilation and running parallel jobs. See the
QLogic HCA and QLogic OFED Software Users Guide for details.
5. Reboot.
RPM Organization
:The complete RPM directories are organized as follows. Note that the suggested
installation does not include all possible RPM directories. Install the files in the
*-Devel directories if you are going use source code to do development work. The
*-Debuginfo directories contain debug information and possibly source code,
which may be useful for testing, debugging, and developing applications. The
*-Static directories contain the static versions of the libraries, which can be used in
place of the dynamic libraries when compiling and linking.
