NERSC

To use Visit on NERSC machines, it is recommended to run Visit on your local computer in client-server mode. Intructions can be found by clicking on this link.

First, setup your environment:

module swap PrgEnv-intel PrgEnv-gnu-VisIt
module unload darshan
module unload craype

Then, load the visit module:

module load visit/<your favorite version>

Then load the last version of cmake:

module load cmake/<the last version number>

Then, enter to generate the file CMakeLists.txt:

xml2cmake OpenPMD.xml

If you have the permission, you can create a common installation by doing:

xml2cmake -public -clobber OpenPMD.xml

Then, prepare the makefile by doing

cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE:STRING=Debug

This step generates the files CMakeFiles, CMakeCache.txt and cmake_install.cmake.

To compile and generates the library:

make

The libraries (libEOpenPMDDatabase_par.so, libEOpenPMDDatabase_ser.so, libIOpenPMDDatabase.so, libMOpenPMDDatabase.so) are located in the following directory:

/global/homes/<first login letter>/<login>/.visit/<VisIt version>/linux-x86_64/plugins/databases/
