Software
From FarmShare
There is a lot of software available on the FarmShare systems. The systems run Ubuntu, so a lot of Ubuntu packages are installed.
There is also some licensed software installed: https://itservices.stanford.edu/service/sharedcomputing/software
Don't use /usr/pubsw
Maybe use /usr/sweet/bin, though we'll be installing new versions of software outside of AFS, use 'module avail' instead.
modules
We use 'modules', a commonly used software package in HPC environments: http://modules.sourceforge.net/
First, you will need to source the module env vars for your shell:
If using sh/bash/ksh/zsh, add this to your .bashrc eval `tclsh /mnt/glusterfs/software/free/modules/tcl/modulecmd.tcl sh autoinit` If using csh/tcsh, add this to your .cshrc source /mnt/glusterfs/software/free/modules/tcl/init/csh If using perl, put this in your script eval `tclsh /mnt/glusterfs/software/free/modules/tcl/modulecmd.tcl perl autoinit`;
For example, try something like this at the end of your .bashrc:
HOSTNAME=$(hostname) if [ "${HOSTNAME:0:4}" = "corn" ]; then #source farmshare modules echo "on a corn! try module avail" eval `tclsh /mnt/glusterfs/software/free/modules/tcl/modulecmd.tcl sh autoinit` fi
Then you can do something like:
module avail module load stata stata
