Software: Apptainer - nthu-ioa/cluster GitHub Wiki

Apptainer is the open-source successor to Singularity. It can be used to run containerised images that can run on HPC systems using MPI and infiniband (with some care, see below).

See https://apptainer.org/.

We use Apptainer version 1.2.5-1 with Linux Kernel version 3.10.0-1160.
