3.8) Default Environment On ARC2
There are usually several modules loaded by default. For instance, when you first login to ARC2, executing the module list command will return:
$ module list
Currently Loaded Modulefiles: 1) licenses 3) bit/64 5) openmpi/1.6.5 2) sge 4) intel/13.1.3.192 6) user
It is possible to change the set of modules loaded automatically at login, by editing the startup file, ~/.bashrc (recall that ~ is shorthand for $HOME directory). However, as some of the default modules set some important system defaults, caution is advised if removing any of the default modules. A brief description of the default modules is given below.
