If you have an homogeneous cluster, architecture-wise, you can hardcode the architecture in your module file. But I guess that if you ask, that's not the case. I would try to determine the machine type in the module file itself. Not sure if a modulefile could get the result of an external $(uname -m | sed 's/x86_64/intel64/;s/i[3-6]86/ia32/'), but the modulefile(4) manpage mentions a uname directive. For me, Intel xxxvars.{c,}sh files never really fit into the module model. But I guess that's not what they have been designed for. So I used to give a look at was they do, which is often not much, and try to re-implement them using a modulefile. It would give something along the lines of: -- 8< ----------------------------------------------------------------------- #%Module1.0##################################################################### ## ## modulefile ## # for Tcl script use only set name "Intel Fortran Compiler" set version "10.1.008" set arch "em64t" set desc "$name ($version, $arch)" set url "http://www.intel.com/cd/software/products/asmona/eng/346152.htm" proc ModulesHelp { } { global name global desc global url puts stderr "This modulefile provides $desc\n" puts stderr "More information about $name can be found at:" puts stderr " $url\n" } module-whatis "Sets the environment for $desc" # Make sure no other compiler modulefiles are loaded before loading this if { [ module-info mode load ] && ![ module-info mode remove ] } { ModulesHelp #obtain the list of modulefiles eval set [ array get env MODULESHOME ] source $MODULESHOME/modulefiles/biox2/utils.tcl foreach mod $fcompilers_module_list { if [ is-loaded "$mod" ] { module unload "$mod" } } } conflict compilers/*/fortran set root /opt/intel/fce setenv INTEL_LICENSE_FILE 28...@frontend1 prepend-path PATH $root/$version/bin prepend-path LD_LIBRARY_PATH $root/$version/lib prepend-path MANPATH $root/$version/man -- 8< ----------------------------------------------------------------------- HTH, -- Kilian _______________________________________________ Beowulf mailing list, Beowulf@beowulf.org To change your subscription (digest mode or unsubscribe) visit http://www.beowulf.org/mailman/listinfo/beowulf
