----------------------------------------


Pre-Requisites:

You need not have Studio 10 installed on your system to run LAM/MPI.
However, if you want to compile MPI programs using the wrapper compilers
of LAM/MPI (mpif77,mpicc) then you must have Studio 10 installed.

You MUST have Studio 10 installed to run the HPL benchmark.


This software package includes the following Solaris packages:

1. LAM/MPI 7.1.1 (64-bit): Installs in --> /usr/local/lam-7.1.1
2. HPL 1.0a for LAM (64-bit): Installs in --> /usr/local/hpl-lam


Instructions:

Go to the folder named 'packages'.
Use 'pkgadd -d [pkgName]' to install a package.
You need to be root user to install the packages.


After Install:

You will need to create a '.rhosts' file in the user's home directory.
In the file, you will need to specify the machines and username on
each line, for all machines that the user will run LAM on.

e.g. To run LAM across machine1 & machine2 with user 'user':

machine1 user
machine2 user


You will also need a '.bashrc' file, if you are using bash. Place the
file in the user's home directory. This file needs to be in every
machine that will be running LAM.
e.g. Create a '.shrc' file if you are using sh.
Add the following line to the file:

For bash:
export PATH=/usr/local/lam-7.1.1/bin:$PATH

For tcsh or csh:
set env = ($PATH /usr/local/lam-7.1.1/bin)
