There is a cmake module available which is targeted to be used for generating an application for the compute nodes on Hermit :

hpcander@nid01146:/> module load tools/cmake/2.8.7
hpcander@nid01146:/> module help tools/cmake/2.8.7

In order to use cmake on Hermit, you can create a file with the follwoing 4 lines
cat toolchain_file_hermit.cmake
SET(CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME Hermit)
SET(CMAKE_C_COMPILER       cc)
SET(CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER     CC)
SET(CMAKE_Fortran_COMPILER ftn)
and then you use it with
cmake -DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=./toolchain_file_hermit.cmake
