MODULES

In order to use the Cluster programs, the system is organized into modules. There are several command to query, load and remove modules, for example:

If you need to run python3:

do a module avail python3 and the output will show all python version installed in the cluster:

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- /cm/shared/modulefiles ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
python3/3.3.2          python3/3.4.4          python3/3.5.3          python3/3.6.0          python3/3.6.3          python3/3.6.8          python3/3.7.1(default) python3/3.8.6

then, do a module load python3/<version>, for example:

module load python3/3.7.1

and the python version will be loaded:

# python --version
Python 3.7.1

to list the loaded modules, type module list:

module list
Currently Loaded Modulefiles:
  1) gmp/6.0.0       2) mpc/1.0.2       3) mpfr/4.0.0      4) gcc/9.3.0       5) python3/3.7.1

to remove the module, you can either do a module unload python3/3.7.1 or a full remove by typing module purge
