===================================
Installing AEN in a custom location
===================================

To install AEN in a custom location:

#. Make the custom install folder owned by ``$AEN_SRVC_ACCT``. EXAMPLE: ``/data/aen/``.
#. Make a symlink from ``/opt/wakari`` to ``/data/aen``.
#. Run the installers.
#. Move the folder from ``/projects`` to your chosen custom location. EXAMPLE: ``/data/aen/projects``.
#. Make a symlink from ``/projects`` to ``/data/aen/projects``.

NOTE: We recommend putting ``/opt/wakari`` and ``/projects`` on the same
filesystem. If the project and conda environment directories are on separate
filesystems then more disk space will be required on compute nodes and
performance will be worse.
