The MVAPICH2 software, based on MPI 3.1 standard, delivers the best performance, scalability and fault tolerance for high-end computing systems and servers using InfiniBand, Omni-Path, Ethernet/iWARP, and RoCE networking technologies. MVAPICH2 provides underlying support for several interfaces (such as OFA-IB, OFA-iWARP, OFA-RoCE, CH3-PSM, CH3-PSM2, Shared Memory, and TCP) for portability across multiple networks. This package uses the basic GNU build system. To install a default build of MVAPICH2 from the release tarball you can issue the following commands: ./configure --prefix=/path/to/install/mvapich2 make # make -j for parallel build make install The latest MVAPICH2 release tarball can be downloaded from: http://mvapich.cse.ohio-state.edu/download/mvapich2/ If you are downloading MVAPICH2 from svn, you can use the following steps to install a default build. ./autogen.sh ./configure --prefix=/path/to/install/mvapich2 make # make -j for parallel build make install For more information about this package and the MVAPICH project please refer to the project web site.
