Hi there, Some time ago I built a PETSc (3.0.0-p9) on the BG/P down at NZ's Univ of Canterbury, for a researcher here at VUW who wanted to run the PISM ice-sheet modelling code on top of it, and in the process discovered that the version installed by the sys admins at the facility was buggy, so the researcher carried on compiling later PISMs against my 3.0.0-p9.
UoC are in the process of upgrading to a BG/P and the researcher has asked me to see if I can coddle things together, is keen to run with what he had before and is under "time pressure" to get the remaining results needed for a paper, so is hoping I can install something ahead of the facility's sys admins install a system wide version. Notwithstanding the obvious upgrade in release of PETSc from our 3.0 series to the current 3.2, I notice that the petsc-bgl-tools wrapper package only (not surprisingly I guess, given the bgl bit) provided for IBM 7.0 and 8.0 compiler suites, so, have you guys tried out PETSc on a BG/P yet? And if so, is there now, a petsc-bgp-tools package that wraps the IBM 9.0 series compilers that seem to be there? (Only had access in the last few days, so all news to me!) -- Kevin M.
