On the command line interface of any bwHPC cluster, a list of the available i versions using

3 License

Anything specific to the licensing model goes here. If the Program is GPL or one of the over very common free software licenses, you can probably remove this section. Things that should be mentioned here (if they apply) - does the software use a license server - if yes, how many concurrent licenses can we use - are there other restrictions on the license (most proprietary software run on Universitiescan only be used for non-commercial research or teaching purposes) - Do any other restrictions apply

4 Usage

4.1 Loading the module

You can load the default version of software name with the command

$ module load category/softwarename

The module will try to load modules it needs to function (e.g. compiler/intel). If loading the module fails, check if you have already loaded one of those modules, but not in the version needed for software name. If you wish to load a specific (older) version, you can do so using e.g.

$ module load category/softwarename/0.0.0

to load the version 0.0.0.

4.2 Program Binaries

4.3 Disk Usage

Scratch files are written to the current directory by default. Please change to a local directory before starting your calculations. For example

$ mkdir -p /tmp/$USER/job_sub_dir 
$ cd /tmp/$USER/job_sub_dir 

In case of multi-node parallel jobs, you might need to create the directory on all nodes used.

5 Examples

You can copy a simple interactive example to your home directory and run it, using:

$ mkdir ~/SOFTWARENAME-examples/
$ cp -r $SOFTWARENAME_EXA_DIR/ ~/SOFTWARENAME-examples/
$ cd ~/SOFTWARENAME-examples/
$ blabla


6 Version-Specific Information

For information specific to a single version, see the information available via the module system with the command

$ module help category/softwarename
