OS on the computing servers?

Permanently deleted user
Hi everyone,   In order to debug a potential issue we've encountered when running samtools on the RAP, I have been asked to report the operating system on which the command has been executed. I assume they use a Linux distribution, but I would appreciate if you could let me know which one specifically.   Cheers, Fran

    @Francisco Rodriguez-Algarra?,

     

    You could add the following commands to your Swiss Army Knife command line spec:

    Sorry, @Ondrej Klempir? , I'm a bit confused. Are you suggesting that the computing nodes don't have the same OS installed in all of them? That every time we run a command we might be doing it on a different OS?

    When you are building an applet, you can specify Ubuntu version in the "runSpec" section: https://documentation.dnanexus.com/getting-started/developer-quickstart#3.-provide-an-input-output-spec

     

    Similarly, DNAnexus supported apps could be developed or live under different versions of Ubuntu OS, e.g. an older version of SAK might run on older version of Ubuntu.

    As far as I know, I'm not building an applet, unless that's what running swiss-army-knife does?

    Correct, you are not building an applet. I just wanted to point out that specific SAK version was built under specific Ubuntu version.

     

    Therefore, to my knowledge, if you are running a specific version of SAK, the version of OS will not change. In my command, I just wanted to provide you a series of commands to get info about which Ubuntu was used for your particular SAK version.

    you could also read more info about the OS in individual versions of SAK here: https://ukbiobank.dnanexus.com/app/app-GFxJgVj9Q0qQFykQ8X27768Y
