Utilize the old Claix module environment on the new Rocky 9 systems
We are offering a new container module on our Rocky 9 systems that allows you to run all the software that was available via the module system on Rocky 8. The image was created in an effort to make the transitioning phase smoother for users that require deprecated software versions or who run software that causes problems in a Rocky 9 environment.
The module can be loaded as any other container module via
ml claix23/rocky8-compat
For information on how to use container modules, please consult both the module description as well as our documentation on Apptainer

HPC Rocky Linux 9 Nodes
Yesterday we updated half of our available compute nodes to Rocky Linux 9. This reduced the available Rocky Linux 8 nodes by half and might lead to increase waiting times on the older OS nodes. We advice all users to continue migrating their workflows to Rocky Linux 9.
If you experience any further issues, please contact servicedesk@itc.rwth-aachen.de.
You can track any disruptions or security advisories that may occur due to the aforementioned change in the Email category on our status reporting portal.
