Iridium Cluster: How to use

This page contains information on how to access the cluster and use its computing power.

Testing phase 1 show that is possible to run jobs interactively by logging into the single nodes directly.

In this second testing phase:

• two nodes will be used for interactive testing of code, and directly accessible from the internet.
• a batch system will be installed and powered by the ARC software for the researchers to be able to submit multiple jobs. Access to the cluster, allocation on the nodes will be taken care by ARC and the underlying batch system.

During this transition phase the researchers will still be able to login directly on the single nodes, but through the testing nodes.
