- permit SYSTEMMPI user adjustments via
etc/config.{csh,sh}/mpi-system
This can be a convenient place for setting up SYSTEMMPI for OpenFOAM
without adjusting bashrc, prefs.sh ...
- add a USERMPI type. This represents any generic mpi implementation.
The user is responsible for supplying an appropriate
wmake/rules/General/mplibUSERMPI file and managing all settings.
This type of setup can be useful in combination with specific build
systems (SPACK, EASYBUILD, etc) or module systems for which the MPI
variant is part of the installed configuration.
OpenFOAM Configuration
The main OpenFOAM settings are located in the parent etc/ directory. The bash and csh shells are supported and to configure OpenFOAM source etc/bashrc or etc/cshrc respectively which source the following files in the config.sh or config.csh respectively:
settings: core settingsaliases: aliases for interactive shellsunset: sourced to clear as many OpenFOAM environment settings as possiblempi: MPI communications library settingsensight: application settings for EnSightparaview: application settings for ParaViewscotch: application settings for compiling against scotchmetis: application settings for compiling against metis 5
The config.*/example directories contains various example configuration files for the corresponding shell:
compiler: an example of fine tuning ThirdParty compiler settingsopenmpi: an example of fine tuning openmpi settings for OpenFOAMparaview: an example of chaining to the standard config/paraview with a different ParaView_VERSIONprefs: an example of supplying alternative site-defined settings
