Chris Neale has compiled gromacs on GPC, with assistance from Scott Northrup, and on the power6 cluster with assistance from Ching-Hsing Yu. Users are welcome to utilize these binary executables, but only at their own peril since compiling and testing your own executable is safer and more stable.

Gromacs executables:

GPC: /scratch/cneale/exe/intel/gromacs-4.0.5/exec/bin

TCS: /scratch/cneale/exe/gromacs-4.0.4_aix/exec/bin

Below you will find, in order, scripts for the different compilations that you can follow to make your own binaries.

NOTE: the steps are not listed in order! You must compile fftw before compiling gromacs, and if you are going to use mvapich2-1.4rc1 then you must compile it also before compiling parallel gromacs.

  1. Compiling serial single precision gromacs on GPC
  2. Compiling openmpi parallel gromacs on GPC
  3. Compiling serial gromacs on the power6 (submitted to the queue):
  4. Compiling parallel gromacs on the power6 (submitted to the queue):
  5. fftw single precision compilation
  6. Change to get mvapich2-1.4rc1 to compile gromacs
  7. Compiling mvapich2-1.4rc1
  8. Compiling gromacs on GPC using mvapich2-1.4rc1
  9. Submitting an IB GPC job using openmpi
  10. Submitting an IB GPC job using mvapich2-1.4rc1
  11. Submitting a non-IB GPC job using openmpi

Compiling serial gromacs on the power6 (submitted to the queue)

Note that the -O5 flag for the power6 compilation makes it take about 20 hours to compile. You can drop that if you want, but it does give you a few more percent performance.

fftw single precision compilation

FFTW is required by GROMACS. This compilation must be completed before compiling GROMACS.

<source lang="sh"> mkdir exec export FFTW_LOCATION=/scratch/cneale/exe/intel/fftw-3.1.2/exec module purge module load openmpi intel ./configure --enable-float --enable-threads --prefix=${FFTW_LOCATION} make make install make distclean </source>

Change to get mvapich2-1.4rc1 to compile gromacs

This change is required to the mvapich2-1.4rc1 source code in order to compile GROMACS with it.

<source lang="sh"> src/mpid/ch3/channels/mrail/src/gen2/ibv_channel_manager.c line 503 unsigned long debug = 0; to static unsigned long debug = 0; </source>
