CentOS 6.6, Global Arrays version 5.6.5, make -k check: make: *** [check] Error 2

Hi,

Actually am trying to install GridPack that utilizes Global Arrays. Their suggestion was to build with version 5.6.5.
The "./test-suite.log" file seems to be fine:
test-suite.log

However the "./comex/test-suite.log" seems to have errors:
test-suite.log

make[4]: Entering directory /home/tester/gridpack/ga-5.6.5/comex
make[5]: Entering directory /home/tester/gridpack/ga-5.6.5/comex
FAIL: testing/perf
FAIL: testing/perf_contig
FAIL: testing/perf_strided
PASS: testing/perf_amo
PASS: testing/shift
PASS: testing/test
3 of 6 tests failed

Errors at make -k check:
make[5]: *** [test-suite.log] Error 1
make[5]: Leaving directory /home/tester/gridpack/ga-5.6.5/comex
make[4]: *** [check-TESTS] Error 2

make[2]: *** [check] Error 2

Kindly let me know is it OK to proceed to make install step.
Thanks in advance! sanjeev

The failed comex tests require exactly 2 user ranks, so they will fail using our default make check target because it defaults to 4 user ranks for all parallel tests. You can run just the GA tests using the make check-ga target. You can verify why the tests failed by looking at the test-suite.log file in the comex directory.

thank you very much, it got compiled and went thru nicely with the make check-ga option.
