Howdy Thomas,

FWIW, we have a flat module hierarchy and I/we would
never ever suggest someone trying to use 2016b
modules with 2018b toolchains/modules.

Hi Thomas,

I do not think there is such a feature available in any module management system, but people that have more experience with flat module naming schemes may give you better insights than me.

We went with a hierarchical module naming scheme for the exact reason of avoiding that type of issues.

    Hi

    We have installed a lot of modules with the foss-2016b toolchain on our HPC
    cluster.
    And there are a several modules installed with the foss-2018b toolchain.

    But some endusers have problems to load some modules if a module is 
installed
    with the foss-2016b and foss-2018b toolchain.

    use-case: an user has loaded the module BCFtools-1.8/foss-2016b. but then he
    wants to load the Python module which is installed with the foss-2016b and
    foss-2018b toolchain. If he executes' module load Python', then it
    automatically loads the module with the foss-2018b toolchain.

    Is there a way to provide it automatically loads the module with foss-2016b 
if
    there are already modules loaded with the foss-2016b toolchain?
