Setting up your environment¶
To set up the EESSI environment, simply run the command:
Warning
The EESSI pilot software stack is NOT READY FOR PRODUCTION!
Do not use it for production work, and be careful when testing it on production systems!
This may take a while as data is downloaded from a Stratum 1 server which is part of the CernVM-FS infrastructure to distribute files. You should see the following output:
