module load mkl

use petsc options:

--with-blas-lapack-dir=${MKLROOT}

--with-cc=${MPICH_HOME}/mpicc --with-cxx=${MPICH_HOME}/mpicxx --with-fc=${MPICH_HOME}/mpif90

Sorry about the extraneous crap. I was cutting/pasting from my own much longer script.

Do not use "--download-fblaslapack=1". Set it to 0. Same for "--download-mpich=1".

Now do:

> module load mkl

> export BLAS_LAPACK_LOAD=--with-blas-lapack-dir=${MKLROOT}

>  export PETSC_MPICH_HOME="${MPICH_HOME}"

And use

--with-cc=${MPICH_HOME}/mpicc --with-cxx=${MPICH_HOME}/mpicxx --with-fc=${MPICH_HOME}/mpif90

instead of clang++

How should he configure to this? remove "--download-fblaslapack=1" and add ....

1. If using gcc

module load mkl

with either compiler:

export BLAS_LAPACK_LOAD=--with-blas-lapack-dir=${MKLROOT}

2.  We define MPICH_HOME for you.

With Intel MPI:

  export PETSC_MPICH_HOME="${MPICH_HOME}/intel64"
  export mpi="--with-mpi-compilers=1 --with-mpi-include=${TACC_IMPI_INC} --with-mpi-lib=${TACC_IMPI_LIB}/release_mt/libmpi.so”

with mvapich:

  export PETSC_MPICH_HOME="${MPICH_HOME}"
  export mpi="--with-mpi-compilers=1 --with-mpi-dir=${PETSC_MPICH_HOME}”

(looks like a little redundancy in my script)

I think Satish now prefers

  --with-cc=${MPICH_HOME}/mpicc --with-cxx=${MPICH_HOME}/mpicxx --with-fc=${MPICH_HOME}/mpif90

  Thanks,

    Matt

Victor.
