Using Stata on the login node should be reserved for installing packages and non-intensive work. Running Stata in interactive modeĪfter loading the module, to run Stata interactively on the login node, simply enter stata-mp and this will start a new Stata session. Please note that we do not currently support the use of the Stata GUI on CARC systems. The current Stata license allows up to 8 cores. The MP version of Stata enables use of large datasets as well as multiple cores for parallel computation. The Stata module provides multiple executables, but for HPC uses you will most likely want to use the stata-mp executable when using Stata on CARC systems. For reproducibility purposes, it is also a good practice to include a version statement like this in your Stata scripts (do-files), based on the version used to develop the script. To check the version currently being used, enter version within Stata. If needed, you can use previous versions by entering the command version within Stata (e.g., version 13). For either mode, first load the corresponding software module: module load stataĬurrently, this module loads Stata 16.1. You can use Stata in either interactive or batch modes. You can find instructions for this in the Getting Started with Discovery or Getting Started with Endeavour user guides. Using Stata on CARC systemsīegin by logging in. Stata is a proprietary software package for statistics and data science.
