We share a dedicated login node on Tiger3 called tiger-arrk. It is shared with the Kingsbury Research Group . Since this is our dedicated login node, we can run background processes on it to our heart's content. The specs for this node are as follows: - 2x Intel Xeon Gold 6542Y CPUs
- 512 GB RAM
- 2x 480 GB M.2 SSD system drives
- 4x 480 GB SSDs in RAID10
To connect to tiger-arrk, run the following:
ssh <NetID>@tiger-arrk.princeton.edu
You will then be on the login node, which has direct access to the Tiger3 queuing system. Alternatively, you can access the login node via "Clusters > Tiger ARRK Shell Access" at https://mytiger.princeton.edu . You should always connect to the tiger-arrk login node rather than the general-access Tiger3 login node. To use GUI applications, your best option is to go to https://mytiger.princeton.edu and select "Interactive Apps > Desktop on Tiger3 Vis nodes." From there, you can select the Kingsbury/Rosen Shared Login server.
