Most of the preinstalled software is provided via software environment modules.
Most easily, you can search for available software on Noctua by
using the command find_module
on the Noctua, e.g. find_module Cp2k
. (The argument is not case-sensitive.)
using the search functionality of these documentation pages
manually checking the list of all software modules
In this case, you have several options:
We can install it for you. Please don’t hesitate to contact pc2-support@uni-paderborn.de.
If it is a Python or Julia package you likely can install it via the respective package managers.
You could use a software container solution like Singularity to have full control over you software environment.
As a last resort, you can also manually install the software in your project directory, for example by setting a prefix (e.g. ./configure --prefix=$PC2PFS/hpc-prf-lsdft/prefix
) which will install the software with make install
to this directory instead of /usr/bin
or /usr/local/bin
(where you don’t have write permissions).
Note that we are happy to support you with any questions or issue that come up.
