The module command

The module command is used to list and use, in a simple way, the software, libraries or utilities installed on the cluster.

To show all existing modules, use the command :

module avail
info

If you think a module is missing, please let us know.

To load a module, the command is :

module load vasp/5.4.1/vasp

This command loads the environment needed to run the VASP code, including compilers.

To show the modules currently loaded :

module list

To unload a module :

module unload vasp/5.4.1/vasp

This command will unload all the modules loaded by the vasp/5.4.1/vasp module, compilers included.

To unload all loaded modules in your terminal or a script:

module purge

Finally, some modules may have plugins (additional libraries). To get information on additional libraries installed in a module, use the module help command:

module help anaconda3/2018.12
