On VSC-2 several versions of MPI are available. Choose one using 'mpi-selector' or 'mpi-selector-menu':
#list available MPI versions: $ mpi-selector --list impi_intel-4.1.0.024 impi_intel-4.1.1.036 intel_mpi_intel64-4.0.3.008 mvapich2_1.8_intel_limic mvapich2_gcc-1.9a2 mvapich2_intel openmpi-1.5.4_gcc openmpi-1.5.4_intel openmpi_gcc-1.6.4 #see the currently used MPI version: $ mpi-selector --query default:impi_intel-4.1.0.024 level:user #set the MPI version: $ mpi-selector --set impi_intel-4.1.0.024
Modifications will be active after logging in again.
