Make High Performance Linkpack a executable command
 

Dear Sirs,

Did anyone know after compiling High Performance Linkpack. How to make it a executable command? and I can run it on any the other same linux OS with compiling again.

Thanks.

I have no clue what HPL is, but it sounds like you are compiling from source. If this is true, most programs only require three commands: './configure', 'make', and 'make install' After that last one, you should be able to run the program from the command line.

I thought Linpack was a library that provides functions for doing linear algebra stuff in your programs. If that's the case, it doesn't really make sense that there would be an executable command for it..

Your right Nylex (according Wikipedia), but then why is the OP describing an executable program?

ching592000, can you clarify what you want to do please?

Dear Sirs,

I got one file from one person and I am curious about why I did not need to compile or download OpenMPI, and then I can run HPL on Centos 5.5 64bit. Below are proceducres for your reference. Besides, he also showed me setup PXE server, and then run HPL automatically.

untar hpl.tar.gz
show bleow files and run hpl by ./run
lininput_xeon64.base
xlinpack_xeon64
run
runme_xeon64.base

Thanks.

I'm not sure what you're asking, really. Are you saying you don't have OpenMPI installed? Maybe in that case, you can just run that software in serial. I don't know what the software is, so it's difficult to help you. Have you tried asking the person who gave you the software?
