Running the new_install utility (for advanced users)
The new_install utility does the following:
- Backs up any existing configuration file
- Queries the RPM database for the paths to the compiler packages and the
path to the 32-bit GCC (gcc32path) and the 64-bit
GCC (gcc64path) in the PATH environment variable,
and then uses the obtained values to execute the xlf_configure utility
- Searches for the Blue Gene tool chain in the default
location, /bgl/BlueLight/ppcfloor
- Installs the license file
- Generates the configuration file in the default location /etc/opt/ibmcmp/xlf/bg/10.1/xlf.cfg
To run the new_install utility:
- Change to the directory that contains the compiler executables:
cd installation_path/xlf/bg/10.1/bin/
where installation_path is the installation location of the compiler packages.
If the compiler is installed in the default location, installation_path is /opt/ibmcmp/.
- Run the following command:
./new_install
- Accept the license agreement and licensing information.
