Step 1 - Search

Pytorch

Go to https://pytorch.org/get-started/locally/ and select options as shown below:

...

Pytorch is special, the correct command should always be gathered from this webpage (not anaconda.org).

Multiqc

Go to anaconda.org and search for multiqc in the search bar:

...

The “conda install” on the above page gives the installation commands:

...

The conda part in the red circle needs to be changed to mamba, and the bioconda part in the blue box is the channel name of this multiqc package. Channel is similar to the name of an online folder, that mamba can find and download the correct package. This is important for the next step.

1. Connect to the VPN

2. Open a command line interface on Sol by navigating to sol.asu.edu on your browser and
   selecting the "Sol Shell Access" option from the "System" menu option. Or by SSHing into
   Sol using the command ssh <asurite>@sol.asu.edu

3. interactive -p htc -c 4 -t 30

4. module load mamba/latest

5. Here we combine three things into a single command:

   1. Create an environment

   2. Install Pytorch using the command found in step 1

   3. Install Multiqc using the command found in step 1

      Code Block
      mamba create -n myENV -c conda-forge -c pytorch -c nvidia -c bioconda python=3 multiqc pytorch torchvision torchaudio pytorch-cuda=12.4

6. And answer Y to the promoted question, if everything looks fine

7. Wait till the installation finish

The -c flag in the mamba create above command (#6) means “channel". The channel name must be correct to install the correct package. In our case, the channel of multiqc is bioconda, as found in “Step 1 - Search” section. More information can be found here: Managing Python Modules Through the Mamba Environment Manager
