v86 v87 27 27 4. The Message Passing Interface (MPI), at least on the remote host, if the parallel version of PALM shall be used. 28 28 5. On the local host, the revision control system '''subversion''' (see http://subversion.tigris.org), which is already part of many Linux distributions (e.g. !SuSe). The user needs a combination of username and password to access the PALM repository. For getting a permit please create an account using the [[//trac/register|register form]]. \\ 29 The [ #advanced advanced method] additionally requires:29 The [wiki:doc/install/advanced advanced method] additionally requires: 30 30 6. A job queueing system on the remote host. Currently, PALM can handle !LoadLeveler (IBM-AIX) and NQS/PBS (Linux-Clusters, NEC-SX). 31 31 7. ssh/scp-connections to and from the remote host must not be blocked by a firewall. 32 32 33 33 Regarding batch support PALM is currently configured to be used on a limited number of selected machines. These are SGI-ICE systems at computing center HLRN in Hannover (''lccrayh''), Berlin (''lccrayb''), 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-XE6 systems at the Bergen Center for Computational Science (''lcxe6'') 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.\\\\ 34 You can also use '''mrun'''/PALM on other Linux-Cluster, IBM-AIX, or NEC-SX machines. See [ #other_machines 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'''.\\\\35 The examples given in this chapter refer to an installation of PALM on an IMUK Linux workstation and (for the [ #advanced 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.\\\\34 You can also use '''mrun'''/PALM on other Linux-Cluster, IBM-AIX, or NEC-SX machines.
