MPI for Abaqus Version 6.5 Platforms

The Message Passing Interface (MPI)-based parallel processing mode of Abaqus can be used for parallel execution on multiple processors of a single machine (shared memory parallel or SMP) or on multiple machines (distributed memory parallel or DMP). This parallel processing mode is the default where it is available. Appropriate versions of MPI need to be installed in order to make use of this parallel processing mode in Abaqus.

Version 6.6 Platforms

Platforms MPI information

Linux/x86-32

LAM 7.0.4 RTK

The runtime kit will enable running Abaqus with LAM/MPI without a source build being required. However, with this approach it will not be possible to build other programs with LAM. Build LAM from source to perform a full installation in such cases.

Download LAM-MPI Runtime kit for Linux/x86-32

Untar the file and follow the instructions of the README file.

Run the communication test suite to verify the MPI software installation.

Follow the instructions of the LAM installation guide in order to build LAM from source.

MPICH 1.2.5 RTK

The runtime kit will enable running Abaqus with MPICH/MPI without a source build being required. However, with this approach it will not be possible to build other programs with MPICH. Build MPICH from source to perform a full installation in such cases.
