Prefix ending support for RedHat 6 #56

Closed mschubert closed 8 years ago

mschubert commented 8 years ago

In the near future (read: as soon as the login nodes run on RH7) prefix software will be compiled on RH7 and linked to its glibc, which will result in the software no longer be usable RH6 (with an error of an undefined symbol in either libc or glibc).

This is to ensure software will work as expected on both the EBI cluster and yoda.

From the user side, all you need to do is submit your jobs to the research-rh7 queue instead of research-rh6 (which is recommended anyway, because more and more nodes will move to RH7).

both installs now separate, this is no longer valid (so use RH6 for now as long as there is RH6 hosts)
