Hi Natalia,

It’s great to hear from researchers using a supercomputer other than Gadi. I have not created any documentation on compiling/running ACCESS-OM2 outside of Gadi. I will ask my colleagues if they know of any old documentation.

Recently we released a version of ACCESS-OM2 that was built using Spack ([https://spack.io/](https://spack.io/)). This should allow for ACCESS-OM2 to be more easily ported to another supercomputer. The instructions are: [How to build ACCESS-OM2 on Gadi](https://forum.access-hive.org.au/t/how-to-build-access-om2-on-gadi/1545)

Some modifications will need to be made to the Gadi specific files. e.g.

- [spack-config/common/gadi at main · ACCESS-NRI/spack-config · GitHub](https://github.com/ACCESS-NRI/spack-config/tree/main/common/gadi)
- [spack-packages/packages/nci-openmpi/package.py at main · ACCESS-NRI/spack-packages · GitHub](https://github.com/ACCESS-NRI/spack-packages/blob/main/packages/nci-openmpi/package.py)

I’m happy to create instructions on how to compile on Leonardo, if you are able to test and provide feedback.

Can you please sent me the output from Leonardo of:

```auto
cat /etc/os-release

```

Regards,  
Harshula
