How to register Genozip for a batch job
​
Genozip requires registration prior to use, and its a violation of Genozip’s license to use Genozip without registration.
Option 1 (easier): register on the login node of the HPC with genozip --register. You need to do this only once.
​
Option 2: If you are not able to register on the HPC’s login node or your batch script does not have access to your home directory, do the following:
​
1. Register Genozip on another computer. You can skip this step if you have already used (and hence registered) Genozip on this computer:
​
genozip --register
​
âž” The license file located at ~/.genozip_license on Linux and Mac and %APPDATA%\genozip\.genozip_license on Windows. Note that the file name begins with a ".".
​
2. Copy the license file to the target computer (any directory, any filename).
​
3. Use the --licfile option to point genozip to the license file, for example:
​
genozip --licfile mydir/.genozip_license mydata.bam
