MPI buggy

<IBM Platform MPI>: : warning, dlopen of libhwloc.so failed (null)/lib/linux_amd64/libhwloc.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Knowledge base claims this was fixed in abaqus 2017. Bug occurs in abaqus 2018.

Work around:

unset SLURM_GTIDS

installer buggy

Abaqus 6.12 installer was buggy -- permissions were wrong on unzip, caused silent failures. Find files to chmod +x with

 find . -type f ! -perm -02 ! -name '*.exe' ! -name '*.zip' ! -name '*.pdf' | xargs file | egrep -i 'script|executable'|grep -iv windows | sed -e 's/:.*$//'

Installer hates centos, run -sysinfo for full check list, then use -nosystemchecks

Windows 8 for v6.12: setup -nosystemchecks

compiler options

Abaqus assumes intel fortran compiler, but works with gfortran if you edit the compiler options. [1]

• $INSTALLPATH/SimulationServices/V6R2017x/linux_a64/SMA/site/lnx86_64.env
• fortCmd = "gfortran"
• Fix compile_fortran link_sl link_exe
• Remove options -V -auto -mP2OPT_hpo_vec_divbyzero=F -fpp -extend_source -cxxlib -threads -parallel
• Add to link_sl link_exe '-lgfortran',

Not sure where abaqus puts the compiler error logs.
