Setup

ipp user

Operations are generally performed as the ipp user on the Production Cluster. You should add your ssh public key to ~ipp/.ssh/authorized_keys for ease of access.

Pantasks

Pantasks runs in the server/client mode, so that it can easily be accessed by multiple people.

To distribute the load, we use the following for the server:

• summit copy: ippc07
• registration: ippc09
• standard science: ippc10
• publishing: ippc08

The client can be run on any machine, so long as you're in the appropriate directory (which contain a ptolemy.rc file that selects the correct server to contact).

Summit Copy

• Check which machine to use for the server, above.

• Start the server:

  % ssh ipp@ippc07
  % cd summitcopy
  % pantasks_server &
  

• Start the client:

  % cd ~ipp/summitcopy
  % pantasks_client
  pantasks: server input input
  pantasks: setup
  pantasks: run
  

Registration
