IntelĀ® MPI Library Reference Manual for Linux* OS
The IntelĀ® MPI Library provides loadable shared modules to provide native support for the following file systems:
Panasas* ActiveScale* File System (PanFS)
Parallel Virtual File System*, Version 2 (Pvfs2)
Lustre* File System
IBM* General Parallel File System* (GPFS*)
Set the I_MPI_EXTRA_FILESYSTEM environment variable to on to enable parallel file system support. Set the I_MPI_EXTRA_FILESYSTEM_LIST environment variable to request native support for the specific file system. For example, to request native support for Panasas* ActiveScale* File System, do the following:
$ mpiexec -env I_MPI_EXTRA_FILESYSTEM on \
-env I_MPI_EXTRA_FILESYSTEM_LIST panfs -n 2 ./test
