Question: MLPerf Storage Benchmark Support on Rocky Linux? (mpi4py Installation Problem)

[knachiketa04]

Hi MLPerf Storage Community,

I'm encountering a persistent issue while trying to set up the MLPerf Storage benchmark on Rocky Linux. The installation process fails consistently during the requirements installation phase, specifically when building the wheel for mpi4py.

The error message I receive is: "ERROR: Failed building wheel for mpi4py".

I've followed the steps outlined in the official documentation (https://github.com/mlcommons/storage?tab=readme-ov-file#installation) meticulously, but the problem persists.

I've attempted several troubleshooting steps, including [mention specific things you've tried, e.g., updating pip, installing dependencies, trying different compiler flags, etc.]. Unfortunately, none of these have resolved the issue.

My primary questions are:

1. Is MLPerf Storage officially supported on Rocky Linux? I couldn't find specific documentation mentioning compatibility, and I want to confirm if it's intended to work on this distribution.
2. Has anyone else encountered this mpi4py wheel build error on Rocky Linux (or similar RHEL-based distributions)? If so, what was the solution or workaround?
3. Are there any specific dependencies or system configurations required on Rocky Linux that might be causing this conflict?

Any guidance or insights from the community would be greatly appreciated! I'm eager to get MLPerf Storage running, and I'm hoping to overcome this hurdle.

Thanks in advance for your time and assistance.

Could you try getting mpi4py from https://github.com/mpi4py/mpi4py and python setup.py build python setup.py install In this case, we can see the detailed error report. Make sure also you have installed either OpenMPI or MPICH on your syster.
