MKL v11.1.2 link failure with scalapack

John_Young — Mon, 17 Mar 2014 18:57:18 GMT

Hi,

After updating from MKL 11.0.5 to 11.1.2, I keep getting link failures on mkl_scalapack_ilp64.lib. After some searching, I see that for 11.0.5, all mkl library files are in

C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Composer XE 2013\mkl\lib\intel64

but after updating, I see that the mkl library files are spread across

C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Composer XE 2013 SP1\mkl\lib\intel64
C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Composer XE 2013 SP1\mkl\lib\mic

In particular, the mkl_scalapack_ilp64.lib and mkl_blacs_intelmpi_ilp64.lib are no longer in mkl\lib\intel64. I see a

   libmkl_blacs_intelmpi_lp64.a
     libmkl_blacs_intelmpi_lp64.so
     libmkl_scalapack_ilp64.a
     libmkl_scalapack_ilp64.so

in C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Composer XE 2013 SP1\mkl\lib\mic.

How am I supposed to link to scalapack/blacs in MKL 11.1.2? I'm using VS2010, Windows 7.

Thanks,

John

you don't see these

you don't see these libraries in ../intel64 folder because of the new Install Option has been introduced since MKL v.11.1 - please see more details follow this link: "http://software.intel.com/en-us/articles/intelr-mkl-new-install-option". You need to reinstall MKL again and select "Cluster Support for Intel64" item.

I see. Is there a way from the "Intel Software Manager" to force a re-install? I do not see how to re-install MKL from the software manager.

Thanks,

I am not sure how to do that,
