Installing EasyBuild

Prerequisites

For EasyBuild to get installed, we need a RHEL server and an account which is assigned to the group swadmin. For every piece of software, that can't be installed with pypi or EasyBuild itself, we need the HPC root admins to install it for us. We have write access for every folder which is assigned to the group swadmin. For the EasyBild bootstrap (see down below) to succeed flawlessly, we need our root admins to install some dependencies at first:

• setuptools
• git
• patch
• rdma-core-devel
• development tools (for g++ and c++)
