      • Request to ATLAS sites: update the HEP_OSlibs rpm 5m

        Dear ATLAS sites,

        a new dependency has been introduced in the ATLAS software which requires BLAS [1] (vector linear algebra subroutines) libraries. The libraries rpms have been inserted in the latest version of the HEP_OSlibs metarpm both for SL6 and CentOS7. Could you please upgrade the HEP_OSlibs rpms to the version

        HEP_OSlibs_SL6-1.1.4-1.el6.x86_64.rpm
        HEP_OSlibs-7.2.5-1.el7.cern.x86_64.rpm

        if you don't use HEP_OSlibs please install the blas rpms directly

        SL6
        blas-devel-3.2.1-5.el6.x86_64
        blas-3.2.1-5.el6.x86_64

        CentOS7
        blas-3.4.2-8.el7.x86_64
        blas-devel-3.4.2-8.el7.x86_64

        blas is already a required software in the ATLAS VO Id card [2]. However the change wasn't unfortunately announced before it happened and there are already user jobs failing because at sites that don't have the libraries, so the update is required with a certain urgency. We are going to monitor the upgrade with a hammercloud test and will reiterate next week at the ADC weekly.

        Thanks for you cooperation.

        cheers
        Alessandra and Xin
