I have a few questions on build mpich2-1.0.6p1 with Myrinet GM library.
On my target machine, the GM library (include, lib, bin, etc.) is in
/opt/gm. According to MPICH README, I used the 2 options below when
configuring:
--with-device=ch3:nemesis:gm and --with-gm=/opt/gm
I can see both libgm.a and libgm.so are in /opt/gm/lib.
Q1: Do I need other configure options or setting environment variables
(in addition to CC, FC, CXX, F90)? Should I set LDFLAGS
to "-L/opt/gm/lib -lgm" ?
Q2: Since nemesis does not support MPI dynamic process routines yet and I
need those routines, can I use --with-device=ch3:sock:gm instead?
Q3: Do I need anything else (source codes, library) from Myrinet to build
mpich? Or the /opt/gm is good enough?
Q4: Once the mpich is built, is there a way to verify that GM is actually
used?
