== Getting an account == You automatically have access to the Babylon machine if you are part of Dartmouth's Thayer School of Engineering. To request access to Amundsen, please send an email to Helene Seroussi. == ssh configuration == Babylon is actually a cluster of 12 independent servers, so you need to first choose on which one you are going to log in. The status of the cluster usage can be found here : https://cluster-usage.thayer.dartmouth.edu/. You can add the following lines to `~/.ssh/config` on your local machine: {{{ #!sh Host babylon babylon?.thayer.dartmouth.edu Hostname babylon?.thayer.dartmouth.edu User USERNAME }}} and replace `USERNAME` by your Dartmouth NetID, which is your username. Once this is done, you can ssh discovery by simply doing: {{{ #!sh ssh babylonX }}} with X the number of the machine you want to access == Password-less ssh == This machine does not support public key authentication == Environment == On babylon or amundsen, add the following lines to `~/.bashrc`: {{{ #!sh export ISSM_DIR=PATHTOTRUNK export FC=gfortran export F77=gfortran export F90=gfortran export CC=gcc export CXX=g++ source $ISSM_DIR/etc/environment.sh alias ma='LD_PRELOAD="/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libstdc++.so.6" /thayerfs/apps/matlab/bin/matlab -nodesktop -nosplash -r "addpath $ISSM_DIR/src /m/dev; devpath;"' }}} ''Log out and log back in'' to apply this change. == Installing ISSM on babylon == Babylon and amundsen have both Intel and GNU compilers. Installation should be done with the GNU compilers. You can follow the instructions on the website [http://issm.jpl.nasa.gov/download/unix/]. Choose PETSc v3.16 or later (install-3.16-linux.sh). You should not need Python. Use the following configuration script (adapt to your needs): {{{ #!/bin/bash ./configure \ CC=gcc CXX=g++ F90=gfortran FC=gfortran \ --prefix=${ISSM_DIR} \ --with-numthreads=20 \ --with-matlab-dir="/thayerfs/apps/matlab/" \ --with-mpi-include="${ISSM_DIR}/externalpackages/petsc/install/include" \ --with-mpi-libflags="-L${ISSM_DIR}/externalpackages/petsc/install/lib -lmpifort -lmpi" \ --with-metis-dir="${ISSM_DIR}/externalpackages/petsc/install" \ --with-parmetis-dir="${ISSM_DIR}/externalpackages/petsc/install" \ --with-blas-lapack-dir="${ISSM_DIR}/externalpackages/petsc/install" \ --with-scalapack-dir="${ISSM_DIR}/externalpackages/petsc/install" \ --with-mumps-dir="${ISSM_DIR}/externalpackages/petsc/install" \ --with-petsc-dir="${ISSM_DIR}/externalpackages/petsc/install" \ --with-m1qn3-dir="${ISSM_DIR}/externalpackages/m1qn3/install" \ --with-triangle-dir="${ISSM_DIR}/externalpackages/triangle/install" \ --enable-debugging \ --enable-development }}}
