[Swift-devel] Re: Swift on Eureka

[Michael Wilde]

Sheri, All,

I have built  Swift on Fusion (using the 0.92 branches of swift and cog)

To use:

PATH=/home/wilde/swift/rev/0.92/bin:$PATH
swift -etc

The source was built from /home/wilde/swift/src/0.92 on fusion

I have yet to test, but Sheri this should help you get started.

Please bear with us if the going starts out rough here.

We will also work on making Swift run on Eureka.

Sample (but untested) config files to use on PBS here are at:
  /home/wilde/swift/lab/{pbs.xml,tc,cf}

Please join and send all problems to swift-user:
  http://www.ci.uchicago.edu/swift/support/index.php

Im hoping that Sarah and David will soon have logins on Fusion and can help certify this release on that system.

Regards,

Mike
