How to Login (The general analysis division)

Introduction​

SSH connection is used for logging in to the general analysis division of the NIG supercomputer.

Gateway Node​

There are two gateway nodes for the general analysis division of the NIG supercomputer.

  • gw.ddbj.nig.ac.jp
  • gw2.ddbj.nig.ac.jp

How to log in to the general analysis division with your account​

  1. Open a terminal emulator and enter ssh username@gatewaynodename. Then press enter. (The same way for the Windows PowerShell SSH client.)
$ ssh youraccount@gw.ddbj.nig.ac.jp

or

$ ssh youraccount@gw2.ddbj.nig.ac.jp

If your private key is stored in a location other than ~/.ssh/id_rsa, specify the private key path as shown below.

ssh -i ~/yourpath/id_rsa youraccount@gw.ddbj.nig.ac.jp
  1. Enter the passphrase for the SSH key pair(SSH public key and SSH secret key) and press enter in "Enter passphrase for key ...".

Enter "yes" to continue connecting ig the following message is displayed after entering the key passphrase.

Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?
  1. Execute qlogin command to log in to the interactive node.
$ qlogin

Enter "yes" to continue connecting if the following message is displayed after entering your password.

Are you sure you want to continue connecting (yes/no)?

Execution example​

You will see the following message means success on your display.

$ ssh youraccount@gw.ddbj.nig.ac.jp
Enter passphrase for key '/home/youraccount/.ssh/id_rsa':

If it does not work, refer to FAQ.

Notes on available memory​

The default available memory for a interactive node is 4GB. Specify the amount of memory at qlogin as follows to increase this.

qlogin -l s_vmem=10G -l mem_req=10G

How to use the GPU node​

For the purpose of developing programs using GPUs and testing their operation, we have a interactive node equipped with a GPU. To use this interactive node, qlogin with the -l gpu option.

qlogin -l gpu
