Hi all,
Now I am trying to install ROMS-3.0. I want to know what type of compilers and netcdf libraries should be installed on my system?
I am hereby giving details about system configuration:
It is RHEL 3 system with 40 nodes. Each node is having dual processor. The processor is AMD 64 bit processor. The 40 nodes are such that they are individual work stations connected through network ie., MPICH (distributed memory).
Now i am notgetting what type of compiler i have to use and what type of netcdf libraries i have to use.
I am having ifort. Will it is sufficient ?
I have netcdf-3.6.2 binary tar file for 64-bit processor. Will it work?
Main and final question is that what options i have to give for this type of situation regarding MPI. Should I have to specify anything regarding this ?
I hope u people understand my situation.
Thanks in advance.
With best regards,
G.NageswaraRao.

You can best tell us if the netcdf library works. Try compiling ROMS with it in serial mode first. I don't know any reason why it shouldn't, but that's no guarantee at all.
Now for the MPI business. Check it with some really simple "hello world" type MPI programs and your compiler. Do you have MPICH? I've heard good things about LAM too. Do they come with their own test suites? Try the basics before tackling ROMS.
