The list of installed packages is on our software page. You can also view the available modules with module avail, which will list the software that have modules.

Login to Hydra and issue the command module avail,

or go to the status page(s) (@si.edu or @cfa.harvard.edu), or the Hydra-7 tools page and click on link to display the list of available modules

Did you use the -cwd flag in your qsub script/embedded directives?

If you do not use the -cwd flag, which tells the scheduler to use your 'current working directory',

your job will run from your home folder and all log files will be written there.

Yes, a couple of nodes offer interactive access to compute nodes on Hydra.

  • Use the command qrsh instead of qsub (not ssh);
  • (warning) like all queues, the interactive queue has limits (CPU time, elapsed time, memory and number of CPUs/threads/cores/slots);
  • (lightbulb) Read the documentation under Available Queues.
