This implementation is a compiled, tested, ready-to-use version of the NAG Parallel Library that is considered suitable for operation on the computer systems detailed below:
hardware: Intel EM64T systems and compatible (including AMD64) operating system: Linux for x86-64 with glibc-2.5 and compatible Fortran compiler: Intel(R) Fortran Intel(R) 64 Compiler Version 11.0 and compatible C compiler: Intel(R) C Intel(R) 64 Compiler Version 11.0 and compatible MPI: Intel(R) MPI Library 3.2 for Linux ScaLAPACK: Intel(R) Math Kernel Library 10.1 for Linux BLAS/LAPACK: Intel(R) Math Kernel Library 10.1 for Linux
For information about implementations of the NAG Parallel Library for use on other computer systems please contact NAG.
This implementation was produced at NAG Ltd, Oxford, UK on the computing system detailed below:
hardware: Dell PowerEdge SC430 (dual-core Pentium D) operating system: Linux 2.6.18, glibc 2.5 Fortran compiler: Intel(R) Fortran Intel(R) 64 Compiler Version 11.0 Build 20080930 Package ID: l_cprof_p_11.0.069 compiler options: -fPIC -O3 C compiler: Intel(R) C Intel(R) 64 Compiler Version 11.0 Build 20080930 Package ID: l_cproc_p_11.0.069 compiler options: -fPIC -O3 MPI: Intel(R) MPI Library 3.2 for Linux ScaLAPACK: Intel(R) Math Kernel Library 10.1 for Linux BLAS/LAPACK: Intel(R) Math Kernel Library 10.1 for Linux
The entire NAG Parallel Library, Release 3, was compiled with full optimization (-O3).
This version of the Library has been tested only in conjunction with Intel's Math Kernel Library.
This implementation has also been tested on the following system:
hardware: Intel(R) Xeon Phi(TM) CPU 7250 @ 1.40GHz (Knights Landing) operating system: Linux 4.4.9-300.fc23 with glibc-2.22 (Fedora release 23) Fortran compiler: Intel Fortran Intel 64 Compiler version 16.0.3.210 20160415 vendor library: Intel MKL version 11.3 Update 3

To install all material, use the Unix tar utility, e.g.
tar xvf /cdrom/fd03.tar(assuming the CD-ROM has been mounted as /cdrom).
Links to the object libraries libnagmpi.a, libnagmpisup.a, libnagmpi.so and libnagmpisup.so should be placed in a directory, such as /usr/lib64, in the default search path of the linker so that linkage is convenient.
The script nagmpiexample is intended to provide users with a simple means of access to the example material. It will require some minor edits to reflect the local installation and should be placed in a directory, such as /usr/local/bin, which is on users' execution search paths.
In order to enable the software, NAG will issue you with a license key. The license key is a simple text file containing details of the software that will be enabled.
A short term (demonstration or trial) license key contains one or more lines like the following:
FDL6I03DC TRIAL 2009/02/10 "GrhrRhgJdtAlFBom0iDRfLIeyJ"Specifically, it has a line containing the word TRIAL and is referred to here as an uncounted license key.
An annual license key is also an uncounted license key and contains one or more lines like the following:
FDL6I03DC ANNUAL SITE:5056442 2009/09/30 "y5gkechs7qMrB2fe54ctn1dptr"
These two types are the only types supported in this implementation.
Once you have obtained the license key, store the text of it in a file, say [INSTALL_DIR]/license.lic. Please make sure that the file is accessible from all nodes where NAG Parallel Library code will execute. This could be on a shared file system or on separate filesystems for each node.
For an uncounted license, the location of the license file must be made known to the NAG application by setting the environment variable NAG_KUSARI_FILE to the full pathname of the file before the application is invoked.
For example, in the C-shell, type:
setenv NAG_KUSARI_FILE [INSTALL_DIR]/license.licor in the Bourne shell, type:
NAG_KUSARI_FILE=[INSTALL_DIR]/license.lic export NAG_KUSARI_FILEYou should either ensure that all users of the NAG Parallel Library inherit this environment variable in their working environment or that they know how to set it themselves. You can modify the User's Note to that effect, adding the above information. In particular, this environment variable must be set and exported at every invocation of an mpirun command from every participating node of your MPI installation and the license file must be accessible at the specified path on every node. No other actions are required to install an uncounted license.
Further details about Kusari and how it may be configured to suit your local circumstances are included in the Kusari Licence Management User Guide.
For example, give the command
nagmpiexample f04ebfpto run the F04EBFP example program. If the parallel execution environment is not available interactively, the nagmpiexample script can be invoked instead inside a batch job script.
It is important that the environment variables PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH are set up correctly so that compilation, linking and parallel execution can all complete successfully. This is best accomplished by the scripts that are provided with Intel software. Details vary according to which version is installed on your system and which interactive shell you are using. Here are the invocations of the bash shell scripts for the installation at NAG Ltd, corresponding to Version 11.0 of the compilers, Version 3.2 of the MPI library and Version 10.1 of the MKL library.
. /opt/intel/Compiler/11.0/069/bin/ifortvars.sh intel64 . /opt/intel/Compiler/11.0/069/bin/iccvars.sh intel64 . /opt/intel/impi/3.2.0.011_em64/bin64/mpivars.sh . /opt/intel/10.1.1.019/tools/environment/mklvarsem64t.shIt is recommended that the above scripts are sourced in the user's shell startup file (.bashrc for the bash shell). There are variants of the above scripts suitable for the C shell.
The following material should also be made accessible to users:
other library documentation (see Section 5)
compiled libraries:

Making the supplied example material directly available to users provides them with easily adaptable templates for their own problems.
On-line documentation is provided, in PDF form, with this implementation. Please see the Readme file on the distribution medium for further information.
The NAG Response Centres are available for general enquiries from all users and also for technical queries from sites with an annually licensed product or support service.
The Response Centres are open during office hours, but contact is possible by fax, email and phone (answering machine) at all times.
When contacting a Response Centre please quote your NAG site reference and NAG product code (in this case FDL6I03DCL).
