Software Installation Issues
This section covers issues related to software installation.
C.3.1
OpenFabrics Dependencies
You need to install sysfsutils for your distribution before installing the
OpenFabrics RPMs, as there are dependencies. If
sysfsutils has not been
installed, you might see error messages like this:
error: Failed dependencies:
libsysfs.so.1()(64bit) is needed by
libipathverbs-2.0-1_100.77_fc3_psc.x86_64
libsysfs.so.1()(64bit) is needed by
libibverbs-utils-2.0-1_100.77_fc3_psc.x86_64
/usr/include/sysfs/libsysfs.h is needed by
libibverbs-devel-2.0-1_100.77_fc3_psc.x86_64
Check your distribution’s documentation for information about sysfsutils.
C.3.2
Install Warning with RHEL4U2
You may see a warning similar to this when installing InfiniPath and OpenFabrics
modules on RHEL4U2.
infinipath-2.0-7277.1538_fc3_psc
Building and installing InfiniPath and OpenIB modules for
2.6.9-22.ELsmp kernel
Building modules, stage 2.
Warning: could not find versions for .tmp_versions/ib_mthca.mod
This warning may be safely ignored.
C.3.3
mpirun Installation Requires 32-bit Support
On a 64-bit system, 32-bit glibc must be installed before installing the
mpi-frontend-* RPM. mpirun, which is part of the mpi-frontend-* RPM,
requires 32-bit support.
If 32-bit
glibc is not installed on a 64-bit system, you will now see an error like this
when installing
mpi-frontend:
# rpm -Uv ~/tmp/mpi-frontend-2.0-2250.735_fc3_psc.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
/lib/libc.so.6 is needed by mpi-frontend-2.0 2250.735_fc3_psc.i386
