A little more information on the previous email: The parallel tests that fail are: calloc, fltread, and atomicity. All others pass.
The h5dump fails to open any existing hdf5 file that I have tried. Using mpicc which is powerpc64-bgq-linux-gcc 4.7.2 ..Greg -- "A supercomputer is a device for turning compute-bound problems into I/O-bound problems” From: Hdf-forum <hdf-forum-boun...@lists.hdfgroup.org> on behalf of "Sjaardema, Gregory D" <gdsj...@sandia.gov> Reply-To: HDF Users Discussion List <hdf-forum@lists.hdfgroup.org> Date: Thursday, December 8, 2016 at 1:23 PM To: HDF Users Discussion List <hdf-forum@lists.hdfgroup.org> Subject: [EXTERNAL] [Hdf-forum] Building hdf5-1.10.0-patch 1 on Blue Gene Q I have been unsuccessful in building a parallel version of hdf5-1.10.0-patch1 on a blue gene q system (rzuseq). I have used both the yod-configure approach and manually changing all ./conftest to srun –n1 ./conftest and although both approaches configure and build correctly, I am unable to run the testhdf5 or testphdf5. The testhdf5 gives errors of the sort: Linked with hdf5 version 1.10 release 0 Testing -- Configure definitions (config) Testing -- Encoding/decoding metadata (metadata) Testing -- Checksum algorithm (checksum) Testing -- Ternary Search Trees (tst) Testing -- Memory Heaps (heap) Testing -- Skip Lists (skiplist) Testing -- Reference Counted Strings (refstr) Testing -- Low-Level File I/O (file) *** UNEXPECTED RETURN from H5Fcreate is -1 at line 187 in tfile.c HDF5-DIAG: Error detected in HDF5 (1.10.0-patch1) thread 0: #000: H5F.c line 491 in H5Fcreate(): unable to create file major: File accessibilty minor: Unable to open file #001: H5Fint.c line 1168 in H5F_open(): unable to lock the file or initialize file structure major: File accessibilty minor: Unable to open file #002: H5FD.c line 1821 in H5FD_lock(): driver lock request failed major: Virtual File Layer minor: Can't update object #003: H5FDsec2.c line 939 in H5FD_sec2_lock(): unable to flock file, errno = 38, error message = 'Function not implemented' major: File accessibilty minor: Bad file ID accessed *** UNEXPECTED RETURN from H5Fclose is -1 at line 198 in tfile.c HDF5-DIAG: Error detected in HDF5 (1.10.0-patch1) thread 0: #000: H5F.c line 749 in H5Fclose(): not a file ID major: Invalid arguments to routine minor: Inappropriate type This happens on both a lustre and nfs filesystem. When I build hdf5-1.8.16 using same procedure; everything works correctly. I have also used the bulid_hdf5 in the CGNS distribution with no change in behavior. I need hdf5-1.10.0-patch1 or later to investigate the collective metadata changes. If anyone on the list or any of the hdf5 developers or support people have successfully bult on a blue gene q system, your help would be very much appreciated. ..Greg -- "A supercomputer is a device for turning compute-bound problems into I/O-bound problems”
