Install Request: Update ARM forge to latest Linaro Forge

Opened this issue · 6 comments

Application: Linaro Forge 23.0.1

Link: https://www.linaroforge.com/downloadForge/

Cluster: Young & Kathleen

Linaro recently acquired the forge tools from ARM. The ARM download site doesn't work anymore, and the Linaro download site only has older versions down to version 21, which is newer than the ARM forge 20.1.2 we currently have installed. To remote launch jobs from a local client, it requires the same version on both ends.

License: The ARM forge license in CS should still work

Special versions or variants: -

Ticket number:

Hi, any chance this could be done, or I could get the permissions to install it? We need a performance profiler with a local MacOS client for https://github.com/UCL-ARC/research-software-opportunities/issues/781 and VTune does not have one anymore, while forge does. Since we have the license for this, it'd be nice if we could use the software.

Running linaroforge-23.1.1_install on Kathleen to see if the rest of the steps are the same.

Install appears to have worked. linaroforge/23.1.1 module on Kathleen for testing.

Looks like we had /shared/ucl/apps/armforge/20.1.2/templates/basic-sge-mpi.qtf in the previous version which is not in the buildscript.

Added files/linaroforge/ucl-basic-sge-mpi.qtf.

Done everywhere.
