Hi Valeriu, The first question comes up a lot. Yes it is possible but tedious and non-trivial at present (and even more difficult in a hierarchical modules). If it really is compilers that you would like to keep it will be much easier to do a rebuild with EasyBuild than to do wrappers to import the existing modules.
For the seocnd question there is actually work started already in there for supporting the PRACE CPE environment but it is not in there yet: https://github.com/hpcugent/easybuild-easyblocks/issues/82 Alan On 21 November 2014 14:14, Valeriu Codreanu <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Hello, I have succeeded in installing EasyBuild on one of our systems. Also, I have built some modules, and am very enthusiastic about it because it makes things a lot easier. However, in order to deploy it on our system I need to know a few extra things: 1. We currently have a lot of software modules already installed. We would prefer if possible to not rebuild every module with EasyBuild, but re-use some of the existing modules (e.g. Intel Compilers) when building other libraries/applications through EasyBuild. Do you have a procedure for achieving this? 2. The generated module files set some classic env vars (e.g. $LD_LIBRARY_PATH) and some EasyBuild specific ones (e.g. $EBROOTGOMPI). Our current module system also sets some other env vars (e.g. PRACE_CFLAGS). What would be the easiest way to instruct EasyBuild to set these extra env vars?
