ARCHER2 update #9

Open johnomotani opened 1 year ago

johnomotani commented 1 year ago

ARCHER2 has just come back from a major system software upgrade. The bout.env needs updating, and it is possible other scripts do too. Should just be a case of updating to the new module versions.

If anyone wants to volunteer to test and update the archer branch that would be very welcome!

It would probably be good to update the BOUT-dev version at the same time to the latest release.

Note: we load the netcdf4 module for python. I had a problem on a different project loading the matplotlib module (which seemed to be incompatible with the new version of python provided on ARCHER2). The docs recommend pip-installing any extra packages needed (note this requires a little bit of setup in your .bashrc, see https://docs.archer2.ac.uk/user-guide/python/).

Is this issue relevant anymore?

Is this issue relevant anymore?

Yes, this still needs doing.

Thank you @johnomotani. Do you have access to ARCHER2? Can you volunteer to create a configuration, modeling after the one we have for perlmutter (spack environment, setup-env script)?

Sorry, I'm not working on BOUT++ at the moment, so won't have time to work on this (or #2, etc.) in the foreseeable future. Hopefully one of the other UK-based devs can help out (or Europe-based for Marconi)?
