Packages and Compilers installed on Santaka

Compilers

We have compilers from vendors Intel, and Portland Group installed on Santaka. Although in some cases multiple versions of a single vendor's compiler are available, our compiler of choice would be the latest stable release from that vendor.

Packages (libraries, applications, etc.)

For users' convenience several of our libraries (MPICH, HDF5, etc.) have been compiled with several compilers. The naming convention used is to append an appropriate suffix to the version string, e.g. mpich compiled with intel 9.1 compilers would be located under /usr/local/packages/mpich-1.2.7_intel9.1.

Setting up your path, etc.

Let's say you want to use the Intel 9.1 Fortran compiler. The softenv entry in the table below is '+intel-fc-9.1'. Here are the steps you follow.

Step 1: Add /usr/local/packages/softenv-1.4.2/bin to your PATH variable and export it. Ideally you would do this in your .cshrc or .bashrc.

Step 2: Type the command addenv +intel-fc-9.1 You will then see an appropriate list of commands to setup your environment to use that package. You can append this output to your .cshrc or .bashrc.
