v9 v10 5 5 Only the [#advanced advanced method] gives full access to all PALM features. 6 6 7 === Requirements===7 === Requirements === 8 8 9 9 The installation and operation of PALM requires at mimimum (for the [#advanced advanced method] on both, the local and the remote host, unless stated otherwise): … … 19 19 20 20 Currently, '''mrun''' is configured to be used on a limited number of selected machines. These are SGI-ICE systems at computing center HLRN in Hannover (''lcsgih''), Berlin (''lcsgib''), IBM-Regatta systems at Yonsei University (''ibmy''), and at DKRZ, Hamburg (''ibmh''), an NEC-SX8 system at RIAM, Kyushu University, Fukuoka (''necriam''), as well as on the Linux cluster of IMUK (''lcmuk''), Tokyo Institute of Technology (''lctit''), Kyoto computing center (''lckyoto''), and Cray-XT4/5 systems at the Bergen Center for Computational Science (''lcxt4'') and at the Finish Meteorological Institute (''lcxt5m''). The strings given in brackets are the systems names (host identifiers) under which '''mrun''' identifies the different hosts.\\\\ 21 You can also use '''mrun'''/PALM on other Linux-Cluster, IBM-AIX, or NEC-SX machines. See [# below] on how to configure mrun for other machines. However, these configurations currently (version 3.7a) allow to run PALM in interactive mode only. Batch mode requires manual adjustments for the respective queing system and MPI installation in scripts '''mrun''', '''mbuild''', and '''subjob'''.\\\\ 22 The examples given in this chapter refer to an installation of PALM on an IMUK Linux workstation and (for the advanced method) the SGI-ICE system of HLRN, used as remote host. They are just referred to as local and remote host from now on. 21 You can also use '''mrun'''/PALM on other Linux-Cluster, IBM-AIX, or NEC-SX machines.

For the simple method see the end of this chapter. 27 28 26 === [=#advanced]Advanced installation method] === 29 27 All hosts (local as well as remote) are accessed via the secure shell (ssh). The user must establish passwordless login using the private/public-key mechanism (see e.g. the HLRN documentation). To ensure proper function of mrun, passwordless login must be established in both directions, from the local to the remote host as well as from the remote to the local host! Test this by carrying out e.g. on the local host: 30 28
