How to install OpenMPI 1.6.3 – 64 bit version in a machine with CUDA

  • 0

How to install OpenMPI 1.6.3 – 64 bit version in a machine with CUDA 5.0 installed already. OS using is CentOS 6.3 x86_64.

After doing the configure i gave the command make. At last it is showing some conflict with the CUDA include files.

I
have gave the following options in configure command

./configure --enable-heterogeneous --enable-cxx-exceptions --enable-opal-multi-threads --enable-mpi-thread-multiple --with-wrapper-cflags=-m64 --with-wrapper-cxxflags=-m64 --with-wrapper-ldflags=-m64 --with-wrapper-libs=-m64 --with-wrapper-fflags=-m64 --with-wrapper-fcflags=-m64 --with-exflags=-m64 --with-timer=TYPE CFLAGS=-m64 LDFLAGS=-m64 CPPFLAGS=-m64 CXXFLAGS=-m64 CCASFLAGS=-m64 FFLAGS=-m64 FCFLAGS=-m64 --prefix=/usr/local/openmpi

configure command successfully executed. After that i gave 

make

After a lot of output i got the following errors in the terminal.

    The problem is not in Open MPI buth rather with the bundled VampirTrace library. Simply configure the build with –disable-vt. 1.6.1 does not build VT by default. Maybe 1.6.3 had this changed. If you need MPI tracing, obtain the latest VampirTrace from its home site and build it separately.
