The default module set generally represents a set of modules that meet all of your needs and/or provide a starting point for loading other modules. This is particularly important for Argon, which uses independent stacks of software. Once you have your workflow worked out you can save a default set of modules, as described above. That set will include a specific "stack" module as well. This allows you to maintain consistency of the environment for your jobs.

Info

The After the April 2021 HPC maintenance, the default module set, if you have one, will be loaded by default. If there is no default module set, a default stack module will be loaded. Since your default module set will be loaded automatically, you should remove a "module restore" command from your shell startup file, such as ~/.bashrc, as it is not necessary and will just duplicate what is done by default. 


Warning

If you had a default module stack that consisted of just legacy modules prior to the April 2021 HPC maintenance you will need to regenerate the set. This is because the legacy modules are now also part of a stack and that will not be reflected in the set file created prior to the April 2021 HPC maintenance.


As the default stack module loaded at startup is changed over time, having a default module set ensures that your module environment will stay the same. You can then verify your jobs with a new stack and then update the default module set when you are ready.
