Use the new_install utility
that is provided with an instance of IBM® XL
C/C++ for Blue Gene®/Q,
V12.1 compiler
to configure an advanced installation if all compiler packages corresponding
to this instance have been installed in the same location, and only
one version of GCC is installed on
your system.
About this task
The
new_install utility performs the
following tasks:
- Backs up any existing configuration file that is located
in installation_path/vac/bg/12.1/etc/
vac.cfg.
- Queries the RPM database for the paths to
the compiler packages and the paths to the 32-bit GCC (gcc32path)
and the 64-bit GCC (gcc64path) in the PATH environment
variable, and then uses the obtained values to run the vac_configure utility.
- Searches for the Blue Gene/Q tool chain in the default
location: /bgsys/drivers/ppcfloor.
- Installs the license file.
- Generates the configuration file in the default location installation_path/vac/bg/12.1/etc/
vac.cfg.
Note: installation_path is the
installation location of the compiler packages. If the compiler is
installed in the default location, installation_path is /opt/ibmcmp/.
Take
the following steps to run the
new_install utility:
- Change to the directory that contains the compiler executable
files:
cd installation_path/vacpp/bg/12.1/bin/
where installation_path is
the installation location of the compiler packages. If the compiler
has been installed to the default location, installation_path is /opt/ibmcmp/.
- Run the following command:
./new_install
- Read the license agreement and licensing information. If you agree
to the licensing terms, accept the license agreement and licensing
information.
