Please see the Prerequisites page for details of what other software is required to be able to run OpenIFS.

OpenIFS is predominantly fortran code with a small amount of C and requires some flavour of Unix (such as Linux). It is known to run on a number of systems, some of which are directly supported by ECMWF.

The following table details what combinations have been tested and the support level:

 

Operating SystemSupported CompilersSupport levelMPI
Linux/Unix
x86_64 (64 bit2)

gfortran (v4.5 & above)1

 OpenMPI
Intel : ifort (v12.1.0) 
Portland : pgf90 (v12.3) 
Cray : ftn 
AIXIBM : xlf (v11.1) IBM Parallel
Environment
Mac OS X (not yet tested)   
Support level 
 Good support; all test cases will be verified at each release
 Medium support; not all test cases may be run depending on local resources.
 Minimal support. No equivalent system available at ECMWF. Relies on access to external systems or user tests.

Notes:

  1. gfortran version must be at least 4.5. OpenIFS is known not to work on gfortran versions less than this due to a bug in the gfortran compiler.
  2. 32bit is not supported or tested.
