+ | You will be logged in to the **frontend node**. :!: NOTE: :!: it is NOT possible to run your code on the frontend node. This is a very big difference to Iridium. Your code can only run on the dedicated nodes. | ||
+ | If you run stuff on the frontend you will be kicked out of the cluster. | ||
+ | Please follow the guide [[aurora_cluster:running_on_aurora]] to know how to run your code. | ||
