Dear Prof. Blaha,
may I point out a mistake in the siteconfig file of Wien2k_09.2 we
shortly detected when one of our users at RZG had a problem. The
questionable section (l. 842-852) is
------------ part of siteconfig ----------------------------
if !("$input" == "") then
if ($input == "y" || $input == "Y") then
echo "setenv USE_REMOTE 0" >parallel_options
echo "setenv MPI_REMOTE 0" >parallel_options
echo "setenv WIEN_GRANULARITY 1" >>parallel_options
set shmem
else
echo "setenv USE_REMOTE 1" >parallel_options
echo "setenv MPI_REMOTE 1" >parallel_options
echo "setenv WIEN_GRANULARITY 1" >>parallel_options
endif
------------ part of siteconfig ------------------------------
I think in line 845 it has to be:
echo "setenv MPI_REMOTE 0" >>parallel_options
and in line 850:
echo "setenv MPI_REMOTE 1" >>parallel_options
because otherwise parallel_options file is overwritten and the setting
of USE_REMOTE is lost.
The mail of Khakhaber Jandieri reminded me that I wanted to inform you
about this.
Best regards,
Renate Dohmen
