installing in CENTOS

dajum · ‎02-09-2011

I thought I had seen CentOS listed as a supported OS a couple months ago when trying to figure out which compiler to use. I now downloaded Parallel Studio and find it says it isn't supported. I have:

Linux localhost.localdomain 2.6.18-194.32.1.el5 #1 SMP Wed Jan 5 17:52:25 EST 2011 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux

[dajum@localhost ~]$ rpm -qa glibc*

glibc-2.5-49.el5_5.7

glibc-headers-2.5-49.el5_5.7

glibc-devel-2.5-49.el5_5.7

glibc-common-2.5-49.el5_5.7

I was expecting the install.sh to install all the components but it says it is missing

Missing optional pre-requisite

-- Intel Composer XE 2011 for Linux*: unsupported OS

-- Intel Inspector XE 2011: unsupported OS

-- Intel VTune Amplifier XE 2011: unsupported OS

Is this going to work? do I need to install each piece separately?

Thanks in Advance.

No, the installer always reports CentOS as unsupported, meaning that Intel hasn't tested under CentOS. I've never had any difficulty installing the XE compilers on CentOS, once I accepted the unsupported installation. It should take a single acceptance and proceed to install the tools normally, if your CentOS corresponds to a supported red hat.

I use CentOS also. Just follow the Fedora guide to get all the prerequisite packages installed.

or here's my new article on RHEL 6, which will work with CentOS
