Overview
The cluster is composed 3 groups of machines :
- The User Interfaces (UI)
- This is the cluster front-end, to use the cluster, you need to log into those machines
- Servers : [ m0 , m1 , m2 , m3 ] , [ m5 , m6 , m7 , m8 , m9 ]
- This is the cluster front-end, to use the cluster, you need to log into those machines
- The Computing Machines :
- The Computing Element (CE): This server is the brain of the batch system : it manages all the submitted jobs, and send them to the worker nodes.
- Servers : cream02
- The Worker Nodes (WN): This is the power of the cluster : they run multiple jobs in parallel and send the results & status back to the CE.
- Servers : nodeXX-YY
- The Storage Machines
- The Storage Element: it is the brain of the cluster storage. Grid accessible, it knows where all the files are, and manages all the storage nodes.
- Server : maite
- The Storage Nodes: This is the memory of the cluster : they contain big data files. In total, they provide ~2300 TB of grid-accessible storage.
- Servers : beharXXX
- The User Storage: it provides the home of the UIs. It is a highly efficient & redundant storage node of ~70 TB capacity.
How to Connect
To connect to the cluster, you need to have sent us your public ssh key. In a terminal, type the following:
ssh -X -o ServerAliveInterval=100 username@m0.iihe.ac.be
- Tip: the -o ServerAliveInterval=100 option is used to keep your session alive for a long period of time ! You should not be disconnected during a whole day of work.
After a successful login, you'll see this message :
