We have recently installed the Intel 10,1 compiler suite on our cluster.

I built OpenMPI (1.2.7 and 1.2.8) with

./configure CC=icc CXX=icpc F77=ifort FC=ifort

It configures, builds and installs.

However, the MPI compiler drivers (mpicc, mpif90, etc) fail immediately with error of the sort

mpif90: error while loading shared libraries: libimf.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

I updated the LD_LIBRARY_PATH to point to the directories that contain the installed copies of libimf.so. (this is not something I have not had to do for other compiler/OpenMpi combinations)

At that point, the program will compile but I get warnings like:

[muno@titan ~]$ mpif90 test.f

/share/apps/Intel/fce/10.1.018/lib/libimf.so: warning: warning: feupdateenv is not implemented and will always fail

In a google search, I found a reference to this in the OpenMPI lists. When I follow the link, it is a different thread. Searching the OpenMPI lists from the web page does not find any matches. Strange.

I found some references to this at some other sites using OpenMPI on clusters and they said to use

-i_dynamic

on the compile line.

This removes the warning.

Is there something I should be doing at OpenMPI configure time to take care of these issues?
