1. Log in any (unlocked) lab computer using your TD-CSF account
2. Get into My computer -> Map Network Drive
3. Type in "Folder" field: \\dsl-dc\users\your_username

1. mpirun application located in /usr/local/bin it should be in your PATH by default.
2. (obsolete, move to 4.) MPI can use rsh to communicate, so to allow you login to any station without typing password each time you should have file named .rhosts in you home directory. This file has following format:
   
   fully_qualified_machine_name your_login
   
   you can download template here.
3. You should have file with fully qualified machine names of stations you want to run MPI on (one you specify using -machinefile parameter). You can download template here, just uncomment needed lines.
4. SSH Configuration:
   first run:
   ssh-keygen -t rsa
   This will generate a private/public key pair. The private key will be saved in: ~/.ssh/id_rsa
   and the public key will be saved in: ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub
   Authorize Access by appending your public key into your ~/.ssh/authorized_keys file. All keys listed in that file are allowed access:
   cat ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub >> ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
   If the machine you are connecting to does not share a common file system, then ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub should be copied over to the /.ssh/authorized_keys file of the machine you will be connecting to. ssh will insist that authorized_keys have its permissions set so that it is not group writable, so execute:
   chmod 640 ~/.ssh/authorized_keys
   In order to avoid typing in your pass phrase each time ssh is invoked you can create a passwordless key-pair, or an ssh-agent needs to be created and your pass phrase added:
   ssh-agent $SHELL
ssh-add

   In order to test SSH related things work so far and assuming machines file is ~/machines.txt, run
   for bash users:
   for box in `cat ~/machines.txt` ; do echo -n "$box: "; ssh $box date ; done
   for csh users:
   foreach box (`cat ~/machines.txt`)
echo -n "$box: "
ssh $box date
end
   The output of the above should be the current time on all the remote machines. Some or all of the machines will ask you if you want to store their signatures in the known_hosts file. Answer "yes".
   NOTE: the above will also help discovering time skew issues, which are important to MPI. Just be alert to time differences in the machines responses. if they are in minutes... alert the sysadmin.

5. The help and manuals on MPICH are available in /usr/local/mpich-1.2.5/www/index.html

1. MPI home directory is /usr/voltaire/mpi/.
2. You have to recompile your code with headers and libraries located in /usr/voltaire/mpi/include and /usr/voltaire/mpi/lib.
3. mpirun application located in /usr/voltaire/mpi/bin/ and called mpirun_rsh. Add it to your PATH or run with full filename.

1. Firstly, but very important: make remote connection (via ssh) to those station you’re going work on in order to preserve control over them.
2. Log in the station.
3. Warn other station users that you are going to take over the station.

%wall your_message
4. Create nologin file to prevent from other users getting in:

%sudo /bin/touch /etc/nologin
5. When finishing, release the station

%sudo /bin/rm /etc/nologin


NB: If from some reason you've lost control over the station, just reboot it.

1. Firstly, virtually book the machine(s):
   • Click here to Enter the Booking Center
   • Find the machine(s) in the left pane, and add booking for the term you need, please give good phone for contact.
   • Wait for a confirmation (when the state is "Booked") and/or email
2. After this happened, the System Administrator will make all the arrangements to ensure other users do not interrupt your work according to your specified Booking request.
3. Please, don't forget to respect other users bookings

1. Make sure printing works on your machine.
2. run command:
    man -t manpage | lpr
