I never understood the benefit of lmod vs environment modules, although I see a push to use lmod. Particularly for versioning, but I always managed versions by using directory hierarchies. For instance, OpenMPI: mpi/openmpi/3.2.3 mpi/openmpi/4.0.2 Then set a conflict on the top path

We also use lmod here. Very useful when different versions are needed or for any software installations outside the distribution. However, our environment is heterogenous, and the software modules might have different versions/paths on different nodes. This creates an issue when users run 'module

Agreed, I have just been setting up Lmod on a national compute cluster where I am a non-privileged cluster and on an internal cluster where I have full rights. It works very well, and Lmod can read theTcl module files also. The most recent version has some extra features specially for Slurm. An

We use TACC's lmod system. It is pretty straightforward to setup and reasonably well documented: https://www.tacc.utexas.edu/research-development/tacc-projects/lmod Paul. > On Nov 22, 2019, at 12:37 PM, Mariano.Maluf wrote: > > Hi all > > I am setting up for the first time a cluster with

Hi all I am setting up for the first time a cluster with Slurm in Centos7 with 1 headnode and 12 nodes. The cluster is operational but I need to install and configure environment modules. Could you advise me some documentation about it? Thanks in advance. Regards, Mariano. -- Lic.
