John: I would refrain from installing the old default package
"environment-modules" from the Linux distribution, since it doesn't seem
to be maintained any more.
Lmod, on the other hand, is actively maintained and solves some problems
with the old "environment-modules" software.
There's an excellent review paper on different module tools: "Modern
Scientific Software Management Using EasyBuild and Lmod",

I should also say that Modules should be easy to install on Ubuntu. It
will be the package named "environment-modules"
You probably will have to edit the configuration file a little bit since
the default install will assume al lModules files are local.
You need to set your MODULESPATH to include a shared directory where you
will keep all your Modules files.
This really is a lot easier than it sounds.

Ciao Elisabetta,
I second John's reply.
On our cluster we install software on the shared parallel filesystem
with EasyBuild and use Lmod as a module front-end. Then users will
simply load software in the job's environment by using the module
command.
Feel free to ping me directly if you need specific help.

Hi,
let's say I need to execute a python script with slurm. The
script require a particular library installed on the system like
numpy.
If the library is not installed to the system, it is necessary
to install it on the master AND the nodes, right? This has to be
done on each machine separately or there's a way to install it
one time for all the machine (master and nodes)?
