Q-Logic OFED, IB0056101-00 G.02 manual Finally, install the prefixed RPMs in /usr/mpi/qlogic

Software Installation

Install QLogic OFED User-level Software with the rpm Command

S

The tar command creates a directory based on the tar file name and places the RPMs and other files in this directory.

2.The RPMs need to be available on each node on which they will be used. You can copy the RPMs to a directory on each node that will need them.

Become root, then cd to:

#cd InfiniPath<version>-<date>-<distribution>-x86_64

(Another way is to put the RPMs in a directory that is accessible (e.g., via Network File System (NFS)) to every node.

NOTE:

If you wish to use the mpi-selectorto switch between QLogic MPI and other MPI implementations, you need to install QLogic MPI in an alternate location, consistent with that of the other MPIs. Skip to Step 4.

3.To install, use this command (as root):

#rpm -Uvh InfiniPath/*.rpm InfiniPath-MPI/*.rpm \ InfiniPath-Devel/*.rpm OtherMPIs/*.rpm \ Documentation/*.rpm

Proceed to Step 5.

4.To install QLogic MPI in an alternate location, use these commands instead of those in Step 3:

#mv InfiniPath-MPI/*.rpm InfiniPath-Devel/mpi-devel* \ Documentation/mpi-doc* QLogic-MPI-prefixed/

Next, install all non-prefixed RPMs:

#rpm -Uvh InfiniPath/*.rpm \

InfiniPath-Devel/infinipath-devel*.rpm \

Documentation/infinipath-doc*.rpm OtherMPIs/*.rpm

Finally, install the prefixed 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.
