43 | 43 | While not strictly required, we recommend a dedicated 'sbgrid' user account for software management, particularly on multiuser systems. This ensures the software can't be modified by user accounts and that data won't be mistakenly saved into the software stack and lost inadvertantly during software updates. The `sbgrid-cli` program will add and remove software. **If user data files are accidentally saved into the software collection, they are likely to be lost.** |
