Hi,

The EasyBuild configuration file lives on a local disc of our frontend 
/etc/easybuild.d/config.cfg hence EB is broken on any other part of the cluster 
(e.g. building on a compute node).  I am aware of 
http://easybuild.readthedocs.io/en/latest/Configuration.html#configuration-file-s
 and currently $EASYBUILD_CONFIGFILES seems the way forward.  However setting 
that as a system default in every account seems polluting to me.   A natural 
place seems the EasyBuild module and I could hack it into there.  However with 
the frequent upgrades to EB, I would need to remember to hack the newly builded 
module each time.

Since many here are operating multimode clusters, this must be a frequent 
issue.  How are others handling this?

Thanks and best wishes
  Joachim
