Overview
Modulefiles for loading and unloading the sbgrid or biogrids environment are available in /programs/share/modulefiles/x86_64-linux and /programs/share/modulefiles/i386-mac. Loading the environment as a module replaces the "source" command. If you are using modules then you should remove the source lines, such as "source sbrid.shrc", from your startup rc files.
Accessing Modules
To access the files you need to update your MODULEPATH environment variable.
in bash
export MODULEPATH=/programs/share/modulefiles/x86_64-linux:"$MODULEPATH"
in tcsh
setenv MODULEPATH /programs/share/modulefiles/x86_64-linux:"$MODULEPATH"
The above command may be added to your shell startup files or your site Administrator may update the system wide path.
Verify
module avail will show you what modules are available for loading. If your MODULEPATH is correct you should see the sbgrid/rc and/or the biogrids/rc module.
$ module avail sbgrid
---------------------- /programs/share/modulefiles/i386-mac --------------------------
sbgrid/rc
Load
The module determines if you are using bash or tcsh and loads the appropriae environment. You use the same command in tcsh and bash to load the module.
$ module load sbgrid
