A new version of Infinity will be deployed soon. The current users must register on the Infinity mailing list to receive important announcements. This is especially important for MetaCentrum members.

Register into the mailing list here. If you do not want to use the Infinity anymore, you can uninstall it in MetaCentrum (CERIT-SC) by running the following command:

$ /software/ncbr/infiboot/infinity-activate metavo-remove

On other sites (WOLF, LCC, IVAVIK, SOKAR, ROBOX), the Infinity environment is mandatory and should not be deactivated.

Tentative Schedule

This schedule can change. The aim is to deploy the new versions as soon as possible. Due to technical reasons, the previous AMS and ABS versions will not be kept for a long time.

• January 2024
  • testing
  • 2024-01-04 - software repository cleanup I, report possible problems to LCC support
  • 2024-01-08 - software repository cleanup II (cats, pmflib related modules, x-ray software)
  • 2024-01-09 - software repository cleanup III (gromacs, plumed)
  • 2024-01-12 - software repository cleanup IV (cleanup of old module locations)
• February 2024
  • deployment on the WOLF cluster

What is new

• in MetaCentrum, Infinity will be accessible only for registered users (i.e., into the Infinity user mailing list)
• monolithic module caches per site are split into several caches, so-called module bundles
• users can create their own module bundles
• users can create their own sites
• the Infinity environment is now activated per host group, which simplifies the entire setup
