| 1 | == Intall mpich2 == |
| 2 | === 1. Testbed Introduction === |
| 3 | * VMware Workstation 5.0 |
| 4 | * Create three nodes, client-01 ~ client-03, all with 5GB HD and 128MB memory. |
| 5 | * The OS on these 3 nodes is Ubuntu-7.10-server |
| 6 | * hostname and IP are: |
| 7 | * client-01 192.168.180.131 |
| 8 | * client-02 192.168.180.132 |
| 9 | * client-03 192.168.180.133 |
| 10 | === 2. Getting Start to intall mpich2 === |
| 11 | * '''Step 1''' : Modify /etc/hosts |
| 12 | * Assume that we got 3 machines in our testbed, now we have to edit /etc/hosts on each node.[[BR]] |
| 13 | Here is the example of client-01. So does the other two nodes. |
| 14 | {{{ |
| 15 | root@client-01:~# cat > /etc/hosts << "EOF" |
| 16 | > 127.0.0.1 localhost |
| 17 | > 192.168.180.131 client-01 |
| 18 | > 192.168.180.132 client-02 |
| 19 | > 192.168.180.133 client-03 |
| 20 | > EOF |
| 21 | root@client-01:~# cat /etc/hosts |
| 22 | 127.0.0.1 localhost |
| 23 | 192.168.180.131 client-01 |
| 24 | 192.168.180.132 client-02 |
| 25 | 192.168.180.133 client-03 |
| 26 | }}} |
| 27 | * Notice that if there is __127.0.0.1 client-01__ in /etc/hosts, it must be deleted. |
| 28 | |
| 29 | * '''Step 2''' : Download and Install mpich2 |
| 30 | * We use mpcich2-1.0.7rc1 for example. |
| 31 | {{{ |
| 32 | root@client-01:~# wget http://www.mcs.anl.gov/research/projects/mpich2/downloads/tarballs/mpich2-1.0.7rc1.tar.gz |
| 33 | root@client-01:~# sudo tar -zxvf mpich2-1.0.7rc1.tar.gz |
| 34 | cd mpich2-1.0.7rc1/ |
| 35 | }}} |
| 36 | * You could choose the install location as you wish, but all the nodes must have the same install location!! [[BR]] |
| 37 | We use ''/opt/mpich2'' here for example. |
| 38 | {{{ |
| 39 | root@client-01:~/mpich2-1.0.7rc1# ./configure preifx=/opt/mpich2 |
| 40 | }}} |
| 41 | * If there are errors when configuring mpich2, you may need some packages or libraries such as c/c++ compiler.[[BR]] |
| 42 | Try this : |
| 43 | {{{ |
| 44 | root@client-01:~/mpich2-1.0.7rc1# apt-get install build-essential |
| 45 | }}} |
| 46 | * compile and install |
| 47 | {{{ |
| 48 | root@client-01:~/mpich2-1.0.7rc1# make |
| 49 | root@client-01:~/mpich2-1.0.7rc1# make install |
| 50 | }}} |
