How
to Access the system |
You can access the system by telnet directly one specific workstation. For instance, you
can access the system making telnet to crux.spa.lsi.usp.br. However, the best way is to
access the system by telnet to the system name, e.g., spade.spa.lsi.usp.br. The system
implement some "single system image" features. In this way, the
"virtual server
system" will choice one of the available workstations, trying to provide the best load
balance.
Users outside LSI-EPUSP must access the system using ssh (the program is available in
ftp.lsi.usp.br/pub/), in order to guarantee security and privacy.

Using
the Workstations |
You can access the Workstations locally or remotely. In the
workstations, you can edit programs, compile and debug, as well as accessing Internet. |
 |
Using the Cluster's Processing Nodes |
After the preliminary program development phase,
you can submit jobs on the processing nodes you have received access. You can do this in
several ways: using Job Schedulers such as Easy, PBS, or Clustor, or even access directly by
rsh, telnet or rsh commands. Do not forget to setup your environment. For instance, several
communication libraries and applications require specific environment setup. |
