 == How can I install software on my nodes? ==

-If there is no package for the software you wish to install, you can install from source. Copy the source tarball to the testbed (see [#HowdoIcopyfilesfrommyworkstationtoanodeinanexperiment How do I copy files from my workstation to a node in an experiment?] or use {{{ wget }}} or {{{ curl }}} on {{{ users }}}), then follow the package's installation instructions.

 While we will do everything we can to assist any issues you face, we do not have the resources to help individual users install software.

 == I try to swap in and get the error: Admission Control: $project/$experiment has too many nodes allocated! ==
