[maker-devel] MAKER Commercial User -- Install and run issues

Once you install MPICH or OpenMPI you must launch MAKER through mpiexec and speciffy the CPU count to MPI. On a single instance you just give the CPU count off that instance, but you can also go across instances using Amazon’s Parallel Cluster. 

Here is an example —> https://efish.integrativebiology.msu.edu/2015/02/10/annotate.html
That example uses StarCluster which is now deprecated, but the MPI install and MAKER run still apply.

Here is another example of using MPi —> https://weatherby.genetics.utah.edu/MAKER/wiki/index.php/MAKER_Tutorial_for_WGS_Assembly_and_Annotation_Winter_School_2018#MPI_Support

Note that for OpenMPI you have to set the LD_PRELOAD environmental variable before launch.
export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib64/openmpi-1.10/lib/libmpi.so
