HPC @ IU Tutorial - Useful Links to Documentation

The AVIDD system's home page has a comprehensive collection of links regarding the AVIDD cluster.
Message Passing Interface MPI Documentation:
- MPI-2.0 Documents.
- The online HTML version of MPI 2.0 API is also available.
- Their mail archives (forum messages) can be found at this link: Archives of the MPI Forum.
A very nice Makefile tutorial is available at this link: GNU Make: A Program for Directing Recompilation
A good introduction to the TotalView parallel debugger is available at: http://www.etnus.com/Products/TotalView/started/getting_started.html.

The comprehensive TotalView user's guide is also available online. Here's the HTML version or if you prefer a PDF version.
The user's guide for Intel Trace Analyzer is installed on AVIDD. To view it, at your shell prompt type:
```
 xpdf /N/soft/linux-rhel3_AS-ia32/intel-traceAC/ita4.0.3.1/doc/Intel_Trace_Analyzer_Users_Guide.pdf & 
```
You can also copy this pdf file to your workstation using secure scp [Unix flavors] or sftp [MS windows]. For example, if you have a Linux box, go to the directory where you want to put the pdf file, then type:
```
 scp your_user_name@avidd-b.iu.edu:/N/soft/linux-rhel3_AS-ia32/intel-traceAC/ita4.0.3.1/doc/Intel_Trace_Analyzer_Users_Guide.pdf . 
```
Note the "." at the end of the above Unix command, it's required to copy the file into the current directory. If you use MS Windows, you could the Secure File Transfer tool to download and view these files from AVIDD.
Similarly Intel Trace Collector user's guide can be viewed from AVIDD. At your shell prompt type:
```
 xdf /N/soft/linux-rhel3_AS-ia32/intel-traceAC/itc5.0.1.0/mpich/doc/Intel_Trace_Collector_Users_Guide.pdf & 
```
The same procedure as above can be used to download the pdf file to your workstation.
Data Storage at IU related:
- Information on getting a Mass Store account and using HPSS from AVIDD/SP is available off of the AVIDD homepage.
- Gustav Meglicki also has information on using HPSS along with GPFS; he also has a IU MDSS and CFS Tutorial off his homepage.
Useful books on MPI include the "MPI: The Complete Reference" series published by MIT Press. "Using MPI: Portable Parallel Programming With the Message-Passing Interface" by William Gropp, et al., MIT Press, is an excellent MPI reference book as well.
