modules

Status
Yes

We are now using 'modules' to manage the many packages that we have on the clusters.  This makes it so that you don't keep needing to adjust your .bashrc files or PATH manually.

You simply

module load some-module

and it will set up everything for you.  On the Slurm clusters (pod) you just need to do this when you login, and when you submit jobs it will automatically inherit your settings of how you were logged in.  On the torque clusters (Knot, Braid, Guild) you do need to put the 'module load some-module' in your .job file.

To see what modules are available

module avail

and for specific info on a module you can do

module info some-module
