# Intro to Apptainer

## Where Can You Run

Currently, apptainer 1.2.2-1.el9 has been installed and is operational on all compute nodes attached to the batch, gpu, and VNC partitions.

## How to Load Singularity <a href="#how-to-load-singularity" id="how-to-load-singularity"></a>

‌The current implementation of apptainer on OSCAR is not through the traditional module toolkit. Instead, it is natively installed on each node and automatically added to your `$PATH` such that you immediately have access to the `apptainer` command.

There is no need to load any modules specific for apptainer.
