Powertools overview

Powertools are useful commands that provide additional functionality or simpler ways to access existing functionality on the HPCC. To view a list of all available powertools with their documentation see our listing page. Otherwise, you can run powertools on a development node.

The most popular tools have additional documentation and examples on their own pages as listed in the documentation sidebar.

By default, powertools is loaded when users log into a development node. Users may also run the module list command to check if it is loaded. If it is not, please use the command:

1
module load powertools

to load the module before running powertools commands. Powertools can also be used in job submission scripts the same as any other commands, if the powertools module has been loaded.
