PICSL-cluster Transition Guide

welcome to the CfN cluster. This document will be filled out shortly with more details.

Here is some info regarding your transition to the CfN cluster:

Usernames and Passwords

Your username should be the same as on the PICSL cluster.

Your password: if you already had a CfN cluster account, your password will be the one associated with that account. If you didn't previously have a CfN account, your password should be the same as when you logged onto the PICSL cluster.

Home Directories

Your PICSL /home dir is now in /data/picsl/your-username

When you login to CfN cluster you have a new /home dir.

Your CfN /home dir is NOT a data directory. It has a 25GB quota. Please put your data in /data/picsl.

You may want to couple settings/configuration files from your old home dir (now in /data/picsl) to your new home directory. Note that most of these will be 'dot-files' that start with a period. To view them, use the -a option to ls:

ls -a ~

Data Drives

The data directories have been moved to provide consistent naming on the CfN cluster.

PICSL Path       CfN Path
/home            /data/picsl
/mnt/data        /data/tesla-data
/mnt/home        /data/tesla-home
/mnt/build       /data/picsl-build (not yet working properly)
/data/grossman   /data/grossman

You'll have to update your scripts. Sorry for the trouble.
