Introduction

Installed version(s)

This version is installed and currently available

on environment hpc-env/8.3:

*'''XCrySDen/1.6.2'''-intel-2019b

Loading / Using XCrySDen

To load the desired version of the module, use the command, e.g.

module load hpc-env/8.3
module load XCrySDen

Always remember: this command is case sensitive!

Since XCrySDen is a package which comes with a graphical user interface, it is mandatory to load it while having an X11 session open (e.g. ssh abcd1234@carl.hpc.uni-oldenburg.de -X). Also, you can run XCrySDen on our compute nodes, but therefore you must establish an interactive connection with X11 forwarding, preferrably with the srun.x11 script (eg. your/path/to/srun.x11 -p carl.p -n 1).

Either way, the program will start after loading the module with the simple command

xcrysden

You can find a lot of example files to test the software functionalities under this path:
