Software installation request Before you submit a software installation request, please take into account that: Processing your request may take some time, depending on how many requests we receive and how complicated the installation procedure for the requested software is; Central software installations on HPC infrastructure are ideally built from source code to improve performance, and are automated first to ensure consistency across clusters and partitions, which may take more time; By submitting a software installation request, you are committing to sending us a software usage report, due 1 month after the software has been installed; We strongly prefer using recent software versions, including required dependencies, when installing additional software; We may not be able to fulfill your request due to technical limitations (for example, the software is not compatible with a Linux operating system). Personal details VSC account (Required) Email address (Required) Research group (if applicable) Virtual Organisation University, institute, or company Details of software Software name (Required) Website (Required) Type of software (examples: open source, commercial) (Required) Desired software version (a specific version, or a description like 'latest') Dependencies (both required and optional ones that are required for your use case) Pointer to installation guide (Required) Pointer to documentation on how to test installation Details of license server, hostname + port(s) (if any) Location of test case available in your VSC account Instructions to run test case When would you like to use this software? (Required) Whenever it's available (lowest priority)I expect this to be available in the coming year (low priority)Some time in the coming weeks/months is fine (medium priority)ASAP, this is blocking my work (high priority Toolchain preference (e.g. foss/2023b) Does this software need to be made available to only a particular group of users? (Required) No, installation can be publicYes Specify the group of users Does this software have support for running on GPUs? I don't know No, it only supports CPUs It supports GPUs, but I don't need that capability It supports GPUs, and I need to run it on the GPU nodes Specify the system(s) on which this software should be available (Required) HPC-UGent Tier-2 (CPU-only clusters) HPC-UGent Tier-2 (GPU clusters) VSC Tier-1 Hortense (CPU-only partitions) VSC Tier-1 Hortense (GPU partitions) Additional information Motivation and effort Why are you requesting this software to be installed on the HPC infrastructure? For which research project(s) are you making this request? Can you run this software somewhere else already? How much effort do you think is required to install this software (number of hours/days/weeks) Is there a particular deadline by when this software should be installed? If so, please provide a specific date like 31 April 2024, and mention why that's a strict deadline. Have you already used this software somewhere else? If so, where? How many people do you expect will be using this software on the HPC infrastructure? How often do you expect that this software will be used once installed? (once/multiple times per day/week/month/year) How many times do you expect to use this software once it's installed? (never, only a couple of times, tens/hundreds/thousands of times) How long will this software installation be relevant to you? (only for a couple of days, for weeks/months/years to come) Which other software are you planning to use together with this? List of already installed modules List of non-installed software Default (end) Default (end) Additional comments I will submit a software usage report no later than 1 month after the completion of the software installation.
