Modules Software System

Contents

Overview

Matilda uses the Environment Modules package to allow users to load appropriate environment variables to use a particular version of an installed piece of software.

By default gcc/9.2.0 and slurm/19.05.7 are automatically loaded on every login.

Using Modules

To view available modules, 

module avail

You can make a call to the module in your SLURM submit script to set up your environment appropriately. e.g. To load the gcc/9.2.0 modules: 

module load gcc/9.2.0

To load multiple modules (this will load latest slurm and a specific version of GCC) 

module load slurm gcc/9.2.0

To list loaded modules 

module list

To remove modules. e.g. To remove the gcc/9.2.0 module: 

module unload gcc/9.2.0

To clear all loaded modules 

module purge

To reset to the default modules loaded on first login: 

module reset

More details on using the modules system can be found in the User Guide for Lmod or in the module man page. The man page for module may be accessed when connected in an interactive SSH session to hpc-login.oakland.edu by typing the following:
