How to install parallel vasp

#1 Post by chlee » Fri Aug 25, 2006 9:03 pm

Dear sir

I was installed serial vasp program using pgi compiler without any problem.

But i can't find how to compile for parallel in this site.

Please let me know how to do it

#Used Makefile#

SUFFIXES: .inc .f .f90 .F
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
# Makefile for Portland Group F90/HPF compiler release 3.0-1, 3.1
# and release 1.7
# (http://www.pgroup.com/ & ftp://ftp.pgroup.com/x86/, you need
# to order the HPF/F90 suite)
# we have found no noticable performance differences between
# any of the releases, even Athlon or PIII optimisation does
# not seem to improve performance
#
# The makefile was tested only under Linux on Intel platforms
# (Suse X,X)
#
# it might be required to change some of library pathes, since
# LINUX installation vary a lot
# Hence check ***ALL**** options in this makefile very carefully
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------
#
# Mind that some Linux distributions (Suse 6.1) have a bug in
# libm causing small errors in the error-function (total energy
# is therefore wrong by about 1meV/atom). The recommended
# solution is to update libc.

#
# BLAS must be installed on the machine
# there are several options:
# 1) very slow but works:
# retrieve the lapackage from ftp.netlib.org
# and compile the blas routines (BLAS/SRC directory)
# please use g77 or f77 for the compilation. When I tried to
# use pgf77 or pgf90 for BLAS, VASP hang up when calling
# ZHEEV (however this was with lapack 1.1 now I use lapack 2.0)
# 2) most desirable: get an optimized BLAS
# for a list of optimized BLAS try
# http://www.kachinatech.com/~hjjou/scilib/opt_blas.html
#
# the two most reliable packages around are presently:
# 3a) Intels own optimised BLAS (PIII, P4, Itanium)
# http://developer.intel.com/software/products/mkl/
# this is really excellent when you use Intel CPU's
#
# 3b) or obtain the atlas based BLAS routines
# http://math-atlas.sourceforge.net/
# you certainly need atlas on the Athlon, since the mkl
# routines are not optimal on the Athlon.

# one comment for users of mpich or lam:
# You must *not* compile mpi with g77/f77, because f77/g77
# appends *two* underscores to symbols that contain already an
# underscore (i.e. MPI_SEND becomes mpi_send__). The pgf90
# compiler however appends only one underscore.
# Precompiled mpi version will also not work !!!
#
# We found that mpich.1.2.1 and lam-6.5.X are stable
# mpich.1.2.1 was configured with
# ./configure -prefix=/usr/local/mpich_nodvdbg -fc="pgf77 -Mx,119,0x200000" \
# -f90="pgf90 -Mx,119,0x200000" \
# --without-romio --without-mpe -opt=-O \
#
# lam was configured with the line
# ./configure -prefix /usr/local/lam-6.5.X --with-cflags=-O -with-fc=pgf90 \
# --with-f77flags=-O --without-romio
#
# lam was generally faster and we found an average communication
# band with of roughly 160 MBit/s (full duplex)
#
# please note that you might be able to use a lam or mpich version
# compiled with f77/g77, but then you need to add the following
# options: -Msecond_underscore (compilation) and -g77libs (linking)
#
# !!! Please do not send me any queries on how to install MPI, I will

How to install parallel vasp

#2 Post by admin » Wed Sep 06, 2006 7:58 am

1) make sure you have all necessary parallelization software installed
(LAM, or MPICH)
2) un-comment the parallel (MPI) part of the makefile, please take care to use the appropriate precompiler flags and to include the parallel FFT-routines
