To start VASP you simply load the vasp module:

$ module load vasp

the binaries available are:

vasp.serial - built with no special flags
vasp.NGXhalf - built with -DNGXhalf
vasp.gamma.NGXhalf - built with -DwNGXhalf -DNGXhalf
vasp.mpi - built with no special flags for mpi
vasp.mpi.NGZhalf - built with -DNGZhalf for mpi
vasp.mpi.gamma.NGZhalf - built with -DwNGZhalf -DNGZhalf for mpi

The staff can provide other compiles om request.

more info can be found on the vasp web page.
