How to directly launch Lyx on Mac

This tip is originally to work around the bug of Mac Yosemite that BASH environment is not inherited to child applications.

In terminal, type and enter

$  /Applications/LyX.app/Contents/MacOS/lyx &

If necessary, reconfigure and restart.

Compiliing openmpi using Intel compiler

# Download the source code from  http://www.open-mpi.org/software/

# configuring 
./configure --prefix=/opt/openmpi-1.8.1-Intel CC=icc CXX=icpc F77=ifort FC=ifort

# parallel make using 4 cores
 make -j 4 all

# installation with sudo permission
 sudo bash
 make install

# "sudo make install" does not work due to environment settings.

How to install openlava in Ubuntu

1) prerequisite:
    sudo apt-get install python-software-properties         
   
2) add ppa
    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:cansmith/ol

3) update repository
    sudo apt-get update

4) install openlava
    sudo apt-get install --yes openlava

5) edit /etc/hosts: the first line
from
    127.0.0.1       localhost
to
    127.0.0.1       myhostname  localhost

6) setup configuration
- Go to openlava directory
    cd /etc/openlava/
- open openlava.sh
    sudo vi openlava.sh
- change
    LSF_ENVDIR=/usr/etc
  to
      LSF_ENVDIR=/etc/openlava
- source it
    . ./openlava.sh
- add it to ~/.bashrc
    echo ". /etc/openlava/openlava.sh " >> ~/.bashrc
     
7) check openlava status in /etc/openlava
    sudo ./openlava status
the output must look like
lim pid: <>
res pid: <>
sbatchd pid: <>
lim mbatchd: <>
(without any numbers in <>)

8) start openlava
    sudo ./openlava start
the output must look like
Starting daemons...
lim started
res started
sbatchd started

9) Check a couple of commands:
albertsk@heyum:openlava$ bhosts
HOST_NAME          STATUS       JL/U    MAX  NJOBS    RUN  SSUSP  USUSP    RSV
heyum              ok              -      8      0      0      0      0      0


albertsk@heyum:openlava$ bjobs
No unfinished job found

albertsk@heyum:~$ bhist
No matching job found

10) run the first job
- go to home directory
    cd
- make a test directory
    mkdir bsub
    cd bsub
- edit a job file job.bsub:
#BSUB-q normal                  # Job queue
#BSUB-J myfirstjob              # name of the job
#BSUB -o lava-%J.out
#BSUB -e lava-%J.err
hostname
pwd
ls -laF

- submit the job
    bsub < job.bsub
- try following commands: bjobs, bhist, bpeek
