We should just get rid of the --with-slurm option in MPICH. It’s pretty useless for two reasons: 1. You don’t need to configure mpich with slurm at all, unless you are planning to use srun/salloc directly. You can just build mpich normally and run with mpiexec. mpiexec will internally detect that you are using a slurm environment and use srun internally. 2. If you really want to use srun/salloc, you can just build your application with mpicc -L/path/to/slurm foo.c -lpmi and it’ll pick up slurm’s PMI library. Then you can use srun/salloc. Xueming, My suggestion is, forget the slurm option. Just build mpich normally and run it with mpiexec. It’ll automatically use slurm internally. — Pavan On May 19, 2014, at 9:28 PM, Kenneth Raffenetti <[email protected]> wrote:

configure expects a directory named slurm under the location you specify. Try using '--with-slurm=/usr/local' in your configure line instead.

Hello,

I am trying to install MPICH-3.1 on our linux server with Slurm 1.2.25. I configured it with the command as follow,

./configure --prefix=/zhuxm/mpich-3.1 CC=icc CXX=icpc F77=ifort FC=ifort -enable-fast=all,O3 -enable-shared --with-rdma=gen2 --with-pmi=slurm --with-pm=no --with-slurm=/usr/local/slurm --with-ib-include=/usr/local/ib_hpc/include --with-ib-libpath=/usr/local/ib_hpc/lib64 --with-ch3-rank-bits=32 --without-mpe --without-hwloc --disable-rdma-cm -disable-fuse 2>&1 |tee config-min.log

Then I have got the error messages as follow,

Checking slurm/pmi.h usability ... no

Checking slurm/pmi.h presence... no

Checking for slurm/pmi.h... no

configure: error: could not find slurm/pmi.h. Configure aborted

Can you give mu any suggestion how to figure out the issue? Thanks.
