This section contains information about additional third-party software installation.

Installing Lustre

This InfiniPath release supports Lustre cluster filesystem Version 1.6.5.1. Lustre is a fast, scalable Linux cluster file system that interoperates with InfiniBand. For general instructions on downloading, installing, and using Lustre, go to:

http://www.lustre.org

Installed Layout

The default installed layout for the InfiniPath software and QLogic-supplied MPIs is described here.

The shared libraries are installed in:

/usr/lib for 32-bit applications /usr/lib64 for 64-bit applications

MPI include files are in:

/usr/include

MPI programming examples and the source for several MPI benchmarks are in:

/usr/share/mpich/examples

NOTE:

If QLogic MPI is installed in an alternate location, the argument passed to --prefix (/usr/mpi/qlogic) replaces the default /usr prefix. QLogic MPI binaries, documentation, and libraries are installed under that prefix. However, a few configuration files are installed in /etc regardless of the desired --prefix. The remaining InfiniPath libraries and tools stay their default installation location.

If you have installed the software into an alternate location, the

$MPICH_ROOT environment variable needs to match --prefix.

InfiniPath utility programs, as well as MPI utilities and benchmarks, are installed in:

/usr/bin
