This quick start is provided to guide users through the steps required to install the IBM High Performance Computing (HPC) software stack on a cluster managed by xCAT. (*NOTE:* xCAT provides XLC and XLF partial kits, but all other HPC kits are provided by the HPC products teams, xCAT may not have any knowledges of their dependencies and requirements)
The following software kits will be used to install the IBM HPC software stack on to a RedHat Enterprise Linux 7.2 operating system running on ppc64le architecture.

If the system doesn't have GPU and the CUDA toolkit is not needed, the adminstrator should not add the following kit components that requires the CUDA packages: ``essl-loginnode-5.4.0-0-rhels-7.2-ppc64le``, ``essl-computenode-3264rte-5.4.0-0-rhels-7.2-ppc64le`` and ``essl-computenode-3264rtecuda-5.4.0-0-rhels-7.2-ppc64le``.
