and this rings another bell: * some of the *licenses* that Intel provides are buggy, on either icc/impi/imkl domains. * look who is being implicated here (bullet #3): ;-) https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-framework/pull/518#issuecomment-15355818 Suggestion: check with other impi stacks and if they install/function smoothly, then simply ask support via Intel website for the supplementary license blob to overcome the relevant bug, referring to your current license. (that's what I had to do there, to receive the workaround) Clarification: not all license files manifest that bug; don't ask who has the bug and why it's there... enjoy, Fotis -- echo "sysadmin know better bash than english" | sed s/min/mins/ \ | sed 's/better bash/bash better/' # Yelling in a CERN forum
