Pigz 2.4

Basic information

Installation

  1. Run:

    $ wget https://zlib.net/pigz/pigz-2.4.tar.gz
$ tar xvf pigz-2.4.tar.gz
$ cd pigz-2.4

    The compiler used here is Intel 2019, therefore, modify the makefile like this:

    CC=icc
CXX=icpc
CFLAGS=-O3 -xHost -ipo -Wall -Wextra -Wno-unknown-pragmas

    Then compile:

    $ module load intel/19.0.4
$ make -j4

    Install it:

    $ sudo mkdir -p /share/apps/pigz/2.4/intel/19.0.4/bin
$ sudo cp pigz unpigz /share/apps/pigz/2.4/intel/19.0.4/bin

  2. Create and place the needed module file. Create a file with the following content:

    2.4_intel-19.0.4
    #%Module1.0####################################################################
##
## module load pigz/2.4_intel-19.0.4
##
## /share/apps/modules/pigz/2.4_intel-19.0.4
