Basic Requirements<br />
In addition to installing <strong>Synergy</strong> V3.0 on each computer cluster, there are four<br />
requirements for each ``parallel'' account:<br />
1. An active SNG_PATH symbol definition pointing to the directory where <strong>Synergy</strong><br />
V3.0 is installed. It is usually /usr/local/synergy.<br />
2. An active comm<strong>and</strong> search path ($SNG_PATH/bin) pointing to the directory<br />
holding the <strong>Synergy</strong> binaries.<br />
3. A local host file ($HOME/.sng_hosts). Note that this file is only necessary for a<br />
host to be used as an application submission console.<br />
4. An active personal comm<strong>and</strong> interpreter (cid) running in the background. Note<br />
that the destination of future parallel process's graphic display should be defined<br />
before starting cid.<br />
Since the local host file is used each time an application is started, it needs to reflect a)<br />
all accessible processors; <strong>and</strong> b) selected hosts for the current application.<br />
Unpacking<br />
To uncompress, at Unix prompt, type<br />
% uncompress synergy-3.0.tar.Z<br />
To untar,<br />
% tar -xvf synergy-3.0.tar<br />
A directory called "synergy" will be created <strong>and</strong> all files<br />
unpacked under this directory.<br />
