Introduction

These instructions assume an installation of Intel® MKL as a component of Intel® Parallel Studio XE 2019 Composer Edition. If your copy of Intel MKL was included as part of one of another "suite products" (e.g., Intel® Parallel Studio XE 2019 Professional Edition for FORTRAN, Intel® Parallel Studio XE 2019 Cluster Edition) your installation procedure may be different than that described below; in which case, please refer to the readme and installation guides for your "suite product" for specific installation details. A table outlining which version of Intel MKL is included in each of our suite products is available here.

Before installing Intel® Parallel Studio XE 2019 Composer Edition that includes Intel MKL, check the Product Downloads section of Intel® Registration Center to see if a newer version of the Intel® Parallel Studio XE 2019 Composer Edition product is available. The version included on your CD or listed in your electronic download license letter may not be the most current version available.

If you have a previous version of Intel® Parallel Studio XE 2019 Composer Edition that includes Intel MKL installed you do not need to uninstall it before installing a new version. If you choose to uninstall the older version, you may do so at any time.

Intel MKL Library Directory Layout

The default installation directory for a standalone installation of Intel MKL is:

Linux* OS: /opt/intel/parallel_studio_xe_2019.u.xyz/compilers_and_libraries_2019/linux/mkl/ (where u – update number, 0 for gold releases, xyz is package number)

In the text that follows, <arch> refers to the primary processor architecture, such as ia32 or intel64 and <MKLROOT> refers to the Intel MKL installation directory. Additionally, substitute a '/' below for the '\' if your system is a Linux* OS or macOS* system.

Within the Intel MKL root installation directory you will find a collection of subdirectories.

<MKLROOT>\bin\<arch>\ The bin directory contains scripts recommended for configuring the environment for the purpose of building the library and or library components.

<MKLROOT>\include\ The include directory contains the interface files defining data types and function prototypes for Intel MKL. See the getting started page for more information.

<MKLROOT>\lib\<arch>\ The lib directories contain the actual library files that you must link against when building your Intel MKL application. These include the Intel MKL static library files and the stub library files needed to build applications that link with the Intel MKL dynamic or shared library files. This library does not contain the dynamic library files you need to redistribute with your application if you choose to link against the shared library files, those files are stored elsewhere (see below).

<MKLROOT>\tools\ : The tools directories contain tools that are useful, but not necessary, to facilitate building Intel MKL applications.

<MKLROOT>\benchmarks\: The benchmarks directory contains the Intel® Optimized LINPACK and Intel® Optimized MP LINPACK benchmark for clusters. They are also available as a separate download.

<MKLROOT>\interfaces\: The interfaces directories contain alternate interfaces for high-level languages or for compatibility with other libraries.

<MKLROOT>\examples\: The examples directories contain alternate interfaces for high-level languages or for compatibility with other libraries.

<MKLROOT>\..\redist\<arch>\mkl\  : The Intel MKL redist directory contains those Intel MKL dynamic libraries that you may distribute with your Intel MKL application when linking against the shared libraries. (Note the ..\ directory reference; the redist directory is located outside of the normal mkl directory.)

<MKLROOT>\..\redist\<arch>\compiler\: The common compiler redist directory contains additional dynamic libraries that you may need to distribute with your Intel MKL application when linking against the shared libraries. In particular, the Intel MKL library utilizes the Intel OpenMP library to implement multi-threading, and those OpenMP library files can be found in this directory.

Other optional or informational directories may also be present in the <MKLROOT> directory.

 

Installing Intel MKL on a Microsoft* Windows* OS System

You can install multiple versions of Intel MKL and any combination of 32-bit and 64-bit variations of the library on your development system. Each installation package of Intel MKL includes the full set of SIMD microarchitectures supported by Intel MKL.

These instructions assume you to have an internet connection. The installation program will automatically download a serial number to your system. If you do not have an internet connection, see the manual installation instruction section below.

  • Please downloaded the Intel® Parallel Studio XE 2019 Composer Edition product from Intel Registration Center. There will two different package s for you that one installer contains all components (parallel_studio_xe_2019_composer_edition_setup.exe); the other installer is required internet connection to access components online (parallel_studio_xe_2019_composer_edition_online_setup.exe).
  • You will be asked to choose destination directory ("C:\Program Files (x86)\IntelSWTools" by default) in which the contents of the self-extracting setup file will be placed before the actual library installation begins. After installation is complete, these install files will still be located in this directory. (You can safely remove the files in this "downloads" directory if you need to free up disk space; however, deleting these files will impact your ability to change your installation options at a later time using the add/remove applet, you will always be able to uninstall.)
  • Choose your target platform architecture. In Windows*, you could choose IA-32/Intel® 64 or install both.  In the Select Components to install dialog box, which displays next, you can deselect components that are not required or select the components which are not installed by default. Note: PGI C/C++ and Fortran compilers Support for Intel® 64,is not installed by default. 
  1. Just click "Next" button to accept End User License Agreements (EULA). 
  2. If you have installed previous version of Intel® Parallel Studio, some components IDE integration(s) will be replaced with 2019 version. That would be fine that the new release also compatible with old version (Please note: You will no longer be able to select 16.0 or older Intel Visual C/C++ and Fortran Compilers from the Visual Studio IDE).
  3. In the next dialogue shows License activation part and IDE Integration part. In the License activation part:
    a) If you do have an Internet connection, you could only provide a serial number. The installer will check with Intel Registration Center.
    b) If you do not have an Internet connection, or require a floating or counted license manager installation, click "choose alternate activation" to use offline activation using license file or license manager; there will be two options to choose from:
    -License file activation:  requires a License File.
    -Floating license activation: provide host name and port number.
  4. Package contains components for integration into Microsoft* Visual Studio*. You are able to select the Microsoft Visual Studio product(s) for integration on the 'Choose customize IDE integration' page.
  5. If Microsoft Compute Cluster Pack* is present, and the installation detects that the installing system is a member of a cluster, the dialog box will be shown which provides you an option to install the product on all visible nodes of the cluster or on the current node only(by default installation on all visible nodes is performed).
  6. Click Next to complete activation and IDE integration customization and start to install.
  7. Click Finish in the final screen to exit the Intel Software Setup Assistant.
  8. Online Installation for Intel® Math Kernel Library 2019 for Windows

          The default electronic installation package for Intel® Math Kernel Library 2019 for Windows consists of a smaller installation package that dynamically downloads and then installs packages selected to be installed. This requires a working internet connection and potentially a proxy setting if you are behind an internet proxy. Full packages are provided alongside where you download this online install package if a working internet connection is not available

          Silent Installation

          Silent installation enables you to install Intel MKL on a single Windows* machine in a batch mode, without input prompts. Use this option if you need to install on multiple similarly configured machines, such as cluster nodes.

          To invoke silent installation,

  • Go to the folder where the Intel Parallel Studio XE 2019 Composer Edition package was extracted during unpacking; by default, it is the C:\Program Files (x86)\Intel\Download\parallel_studio_xe_2019_setup folder.
  • Run install.exe, located in this folder, as follows: install.exe command arguments

         If no command is specified, the installation proceeds in the Setup Wizard mode. If a command is specified, the installation proceeds in the non-interactive (silent) mode.

        The table below lists possible values of  and the corresponding arguments.

        

Command

Required Arguments

Optional Arguments

Action

install

output=<file>,

eula={accept|reject}

installdir=<installdir>,

license=<license>,

sn=<s/n>,

log=<log file>

Installs the product as specified by the arguments:

  • Use the output argument to define the file where the output will be redirected. This file contains all installer's messages that you may need: general communication, warning, and error messages.
  • Explicitly indicate by eula=accept that you accept the End-user License Agreement.
  • Use the license argument to specify a file or folder with the license to be used to activate the product. If a folder is specified, the installation program searches for *.lic files in the specified folder. You can specify multiple files/folders by supplying this argument several times or by concatenating path strings with the ";" separator.
  • Use the sn argument to choose activation of the product through a serial number. This activation method requires Internet connection.
  • Do not use the sn and license arguments together because they specify alternative activation methods. If you omit both arguments, the installer only checks whether the product is already activated.
  • Use the log argument to specify the location for a log file. This file is used only for debugging. Support Engineers may request this file if your installation fails.

remove

output=<file>

log=<log file>

Removes the product. See the description of the install command for details of the output and log arguments.

repair

output=<file>

log=<log file>

Repairs the existing product installation. See the description of the install command for details of the output and log arguments.

For example, the command line
install.exe install -output=C:\log.txt -eula=accept
launches silent installation that prints output messages to the C:\log.txt file.

Uninstalling Intel MKL

To uninstall Intel MKL, you can delete Intel Parallel Studio XE 2019 Composer Edition with all components including MKL 2019.To do this select it in the Add or Remove Programs from the Control Panel.
