Module files are ordered by their topic on
ZIH
systems. By default, with
`module avail`
you will
see all topics and their available module files. If you just wish to see the installed versions of a
certain module, you can use
`module avail softwarename`
and it will display the available versions of
`softwarename`
only.
## Module Environments

the
ZIH systems, there exist different module environments, each containing a set of software modules.
