  1. Download a copy of the source code from here.
  2. Unpack and follow the instructions in hdf5/release_docs/INSTALL_parallel.

OK?

Thanks G. I will follow your advice.

You should also check with your IT team if there’s a version of HDF5 pre-installed on the system.

Thank you. I will check with the system administrator.

I check with the IT team and they told me that there is an older version (1.12.0) of HDF5 pre-installed on the system.

Is it possible to install two versions of HDF5 ? I need to install the latest version.

Thank you G

Yes, that’s not a problem if you build and run your application against the intended version. If you link your application statically, there’s no runtime dependence. Otherwise, you must ensure your LD_LIBRARY_PATH picks up the intended shared library.
