Schrödinger
Schrödinger is a restricted software.
Usage of this software is restricted only to subscribers of the
HPRC-Laboratory for Molecular
Simulation(LMS). If you believe you are
eligible to use Schrödinger on our clusters, please email the HPRC Help
Desk with the request and justification.
Access to free-to-academics version of Desmond/maetstro does not require
LMS subscription. Please follow the insturctions on the
Desmond wiki page and email the
HPRC Help Desk with the request.

Loading the Schrödinger modules
Both Grace and Terra have Schrödinger modules available.
To check the available number of licenses:
license_status -s Schrodinger
On Grace
To list the versions of Schrodinger installed on Grace (as of
10/12/2021):
[NetID]@grace ~]$ mla Schrodinger
Schrodinger/2020-1
Schrodinger/2021-3
To load a particular Schrödinger module:
[NetID]@grace ~]$ ml Schrodinger/2020-1
On Terra
To list the versions of Schrodinger installed on Terra:
[NetID]@terra ~]$ ml spider schrodinger
schrodinger/2018-4
schrodinger/2020-1
To load a particular Schrödinger module:
[NetID]@terra ~]$ ml schrodinger/2020-1
Running Schrödinger in the Portal
It is suggested to run Maestro using VNC implemented under Interactive Apps in the Portal
You can request a CPU node (eg. 2 hours, 2 cores, 8GB memory, any node
type)
Load the correct module. For example:
on Grace:
ml Schrodinger/2021-3
on Terra:
ml schrodinger/2020-1
To launch Maestro:
maestro
To launch Maestro Material Science Interface:
maestro -profile MaterialsScience
A set of modules are preloaded to the portal to support the smooth running of graphical interface. ml purge should be used with caution. If the window decorations does not show up properly, please right click in the blank area and choose Fluxbox menu > Restart.
