Adding Software to Shared Storage
Adding SW to a running CloudyCluster instance shared software mount is a good method for software that works well from a shared mount.
-
To enable the shared software mount during HPC Environment Creation, select the shared software (Enable SSW) option:
-
During the configuration the module path will be extended to include a modules directory under the efsapps mountpoint, this gives you the ability to easily add software and module configurations that will be available to all the compute and login instances.
MODULEPATH=/usr/share/Modules/modulefiles:/etc/modulefiles:/software/modulefiles:/mnt/efsapps/modules
- Install the software as required to this mountpoint then add the necessary module files to the modules directory for the software. Configure your jobs to load the module files you created before the execution stage and you software will be ready to run.
