Required subdirectories post build

[jaime_gutierrez]

Hello,

Once the build process is completed for the VASP software, which of the VASP subdirectories are required when providing the software to a shared path (licensed user access only) within an HPC cluster?

Best Regards,
Jaime

Dear Jaime,

If you build VASP according to our guidelines and with the proper makefile.include, you will only have to make the executable accessible to the licensed users. They are put in the bin directory by default, but of course, you can copy them to any directory of your choosing.

Note that the users will have to have the same modules loaded that you used to build VASP (MPI, SCALAPACK, HDF5, etc), since VASP is using dynamic linking by default.

Let me know if this is a sufficient answer, or if you need more information,
all the best,
Michael

Hello Michael,

That is exactly what I needed to know, thank you.
