I have been using gsim on 64 machines (compiled using the -m32 flag) for about a year now. Many months ago, I tested it on 32-bit machine and it gave the same results. This is not an issue.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">

<div>Johann, can you update me on the status if GSIM? Isn't it easy to do a 32 bit build on a 64 bit machine?</div><div><br></div><div>Dennis</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><div><div></div><div class="h5">

Hi Dennis,<br>
<br>
According to login notices on ifarms all 32bit interactive farms will be<br>
decommissioned on Monday, March 14.<br>
<br>
Is it possible to keep at least one such farm in production?<br>
<br>
The reasons:<br>
<br>
1) The migration to 64 bit systems is not complete. At least some of my<br>
code is not linking properly on ifarml6. I believe some other people<br>
will have similar problems.<br>
<br>
2) As far as I know certain CLAS software like CED in not compiling on<br>
ifarml6<br>
<br>
3) Its better to have backup option and be able to check certain old<br>
sources in the old environment. When migration from RHEL3 to RHFC8<br>
occurred it was very inconvenient the old environment was not available.<br>
<br>

Ivan<br>
