// Software
Discover provides multiple softwares and packages pre-installed to facilitate user needs.
Most, if not all, packages can be loaded using the module command. If the software is in a location other than /usr/local/other/.., users may need to instantiate the software/package by updating PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variables.
Users are recommended to look at all the packages available for use on the Discover cluster by running "module avail" or looking in the following directory:
/usr/local/other
This table contains examples of loading some visual analytics software currently available on the Discover cluster:
| Software | Module location |
|---|---|
| IDL | Run "module load idl" |
| ImageMagick | System Default (alternative module: ImageMagick/7.0.9-16) |
| GNUPlot | System Default |
| MATLAB | Run "module load matlab" |
| VisIt | No module currently, but there is an installation under: /usr/local/other/visit/3.1.4 |
