Install instructions

Instructions
============

change the Makefile for vasp and libs to use ifort and mpiifort
make sure the right links to mkl libraries are put in the appropriate place
load the following modules
module load intel-mpi/4.0.0.027
module load intel-tools-11/11.1.072
module load fftw/3.2.2-intel
Just do make first in the lib and then in the vasp directory.

Patch
=====

cd /sw/VASP/5.4.1/intel-serial
gunzip the patch

patch -p0 < patch.5.4.1.14032016
patch -p0 <patch.5.4.1.03082016 


Special Patch (for Tim):
Replace the files in src by the updated ones from attached patch_vasp.5.4.1.05Feb16.tgz (including the newly created file tim_parameters.F) and replace/modify also the "hidden" file .objects so as to contain the item tim_parameters.o right after subdft3.o (see also my message below).
