Option #3: Use the ADCIRC Live © Installer

Still Have Questions?

Supported platforms: Windows (WSL2 w/ Ubuntu), Debian/Ubuntu, CentOS, Oracle Linux, Penguin Computing, Cloud VPS, and many more! This is essentially a streamlined way to install ASGS using the ADCIRC Live © installation process; which is also suitable for cluster management. Let us know if you're interested in learning more about this. Or see cases with which we're able to easily assist, without breaking the bank.

Note: Valid API keys are required API keys are no longer required! Try it all for FREE. Email Support or visit us in ADCIRC Live © discord server for help.. During this initial period, we offering very short-term inexpensive trials for early adopters who will provide us with critical feedback. Contact us if interested.
The following information will allow you to painlessly install and run truly parallel ADCIRC on your Windows or Linux laptop, workstation, or cluster. With our ADCIRC installer, you will be utilizing the many cores on your laptop or PC with just a few clicks and keys.

1. To install on a Windows WSL Ubuntu or any Linux system that's already got the required base packages, run the following command:

   bash -c "$(curl -s https://tools.adcirc.live/adcirclive-install)"

2. To install on fresh Windows WSL (Windows Subsystem Linux) or native Ubuntu, run the following command:
   Note: root access is required to install a few dependencies via Ubuntu's package manager, apt. Supports native, cloud VPS, and WSL.

   bash -c "$(curl -s https://tools.adcirc.live/install/ubuntu-jammy)"

3. To install on fresh Redhat or CentOS based distro (e.g., Oracle Linux 7/8/9), run the following command:
   Note: root access is required to install a few dependencies via yum. Supports native, cloud VPS, and WSL.

   bash -c "$(curl -s https://tools.adcirc.live/install/redhat)"

   bash -c "$(curl -s https://tools.adcirc.live/install/oracle)"

4. If you don't know what to pick?

Deciding on a Deployment Environment

Generally we recommend:

1. Ubuntu for local compute clusters or on Windows, via WSL2
2. Oracle Linux running on VirtualBox or remotely on Oracle's Cloud HPC
3. Redhat (RHEL) running on other cloud infrastructures

What is special about Oracle Linux and VirtualBox is that one may theoretically use VirtualBox as a client to export a working local virtual machine to the Oracle Cloud, then choosing a large number of processors to run there. VirtualBox is owned by Oracle, and over the last decade has become a robust client tool for their cloud infrastructure. Oracle Linux is based on Redhat (RHEL), but offers some advantages, namely:

1. Tight integration: Oracle Linux is the default/tested OS for OCI — all the platform drivers, images, and updates are guaranteed to work.
2. Optimized kernels: It ships with the Unbreakable Enterprise Kernel (UEK) tuned for Oracle workloads (databases, HPC, etc.). You still get access to the RHEL-compatible kernel if needed.
3. Support model: If you’re paying for Oracle support, running Oracle Linux means you’re in the supported matrix for both the OS and Oracle software (Database, WebLogic, etc.).
4. Automatic patching: With Ksplice, Oracle Linux instances on OCI can get zero-downtime kernel/security updates, which other distros won’t have out of the box.
5. Marketplace images: Many prebuilt Oracle-certified solutions (DB systems, middleware, HPC clusters) assume Oracle Linux as the base.

How is this even possible?

We have combined many decades of experience porting and compiling ADCIRC for research, consulting, and life saving emergency management operations during the annual Atlantic hurricane season.

Supported Systems

• all HPC machines at LSU HPC, LONI, and TACC are supported!
• Ubuntu, Oracle Linux, RHEL, and older CentOS are also supported
• ... more supported platforms are coming soon - we are experts at porting and compiling ADCIRC, so you're invited to request platform support
