Paul Harten 57e57ebb14 [svn-r399] Purpose:
Change in Documentation for the INSTALL process on the ASCI Red

Problem:
    As part of the parallel HDF5 install process, upon compiling the
    library and sequential testers, it is necessary to copy the testers
    onto local disk prior to testing.  This is almost done by steps 9-11)

    ...
    9) cp -r ../hdf5 ../scratch
    10) cd /scratch/hdf5/test
    11) make test >&! test.out

    After the copying to /scratch, when the "make test" is run,
    dependencies are checked and it is determined that the executables
    need to be rebuilt.  Unfortunately, the MPI-IO libraries in
    sasn100:/usr/community/mpi-io are not accessible on ASCI Red, so
    that step #11 above gives an error.

Solution:
    Albert Cheng and Robb Matzke suggested to add the "-p" option in
    step #9, if available, to maintain the original modifications.
    Those install steps were changed to:

    ...
    9) cp -rp ../hdf5 ../scratch
    10) cd /scratch/hdf5/test
    11) make test >&! test.out

    Everything works fine!

Platform tested:
    janus - ASCI Red
    sasn100 - TFLOPS Application server

This is the hdf5-1.0.0a prototype release of the HDF5 library.

This release is almost fully functional for the entire API defined in the
documentation, see the RELEASE file in this directory for information
specific to this release of the library.  The INSTALL file contains
instructions on compiling and installing the library.  The INSTALL_parallel
file contains instructions on installing the parallel version of the
library.

Documentation for this release is in the html directory.  Start with the
"index.html" in that dictectory.

Three mailing lists are currently set up for use with the HDF5
library.

   hdf5         - For general discussion of the HDF5 library with
		  other users.

   hdf5dev      - For discussion of the HDF5 library development
		  with developers and other interested parties.

   hdf5announce - For announcements of HDF5 related developments,
		  not a discussion list.

To subscribe to a list, send mail to "<list>-request@ncsa.uiuc.edu",
(e.g., hdf5-request@ncsa.uiuc.ed) with "subscribe <your e-mail
address> in the _body_ of the message.  Messages to be sent to
the list should be sent to "<list>@ncsa.uiuc.edu".

Bugs should be reported to:

  Robb Matzke <matzke@llnl.gov>		 All types of bugs
  Quincey Koziol <koziol@ncsa.uiuc.edu>  All types of bugs
  Albert Cheng <acheng@ncsa.uiuc.edu>	 Parallel bugs
  Kim Yates <rkyates@llnl.gov>		 Parallel bugs
  Paul Harten <pharten@ncsa.uiuc.edu>	 Bugs specific to ASCI Red

or to the hdf5dev mailing list.
