Softare Environment & Modules#

The 6045 cluster uses TCL modules. For testing, learning, or light interactive work, you can load modules directly on the login node.

Module Commands#

Command Description
module avail List all available software modules
module load <module> Load software into your environment
module list List loaded modules
module purge Unload all modules

Info

  • You can load modules directly on the login node for testing purposes.
  • Load modules within your sbatch scripts for submitted jobs (recommended best practice).

Running a Python Script with Slurm#

Here’s an example Slurm script that references a Python script (query_csv.py) located in your ~/scripts directory and loads the python module:

 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 9
10
11
12
13
#!/bin/bash
#SBATCH --job-name=python_csv_job
#SBATCH --output=python_csv.out
#SBATCH --error=python_csv.err
#SBATCH --partition=cpu
#SBATCH --qos=normal
#SBATCH --ntasks=1
#SBATCH --cpus-per-task=2
#SBATCH --mem=4G
#SBATCH --time=00:30:00

module load python/3.12.12
python3 ~/scripts/query_csv.py

Warning

Load modules within your Slurm scripts, not only on the login node, to ensure consistency and reproducibility.
