We have five dedicated servers on which G22.3033-010 students can do
their lab assignments. The machines are named
class1.scs.cs.nyu.edu
,
class2.scs.cs.nyu.edu
,
... class5.scs.cs.nyu.edu
. Your logname and password on
these machines should be what you specified on the first day of
class. If not, please contact dm@cs.nyu.edu.
ssh
command. For example, if your username is
``student'', you can run the command:
dept 1% ssh class2.scs.cs.nyu.edu -l student student@class2.scs.cs.nyu.edu's password: Authentication successful.

Use the "ruptime" command to find a lightly loaded machine. Machines class1 - class5 have local disk space. On classN, make yourself a scratch directory under /home/cN/scratch. ====================================================================== class2 1%If you have problems with ssh, try running
ssh1
instead:
dept 2% ssh1 class2.scs.cs.nyu.edu -l studentIt is probably easiest to work from a Unix workstation, but you can also access the servers using Windows SSH clients such as putty.
ruptime
command to find a
lightly-loaded machine. For example:
class2 1% ruptime class1 up 3+01:12, 3 users, load 0.25, 0.13, 0.13 class2 up 3+02:58, 1 user, load 0.10, 0.09, 0.08 class3 up 3+02:57, 0 users, load 0.10, 0.09, 0.08 class4 up 3+02:57, 0 users, load 0.12, 0.09, 0.08 class5 up 3+02:56, 0 users, load 0.07, 0.08, 0.08 class2 2%This shows that machines
class3
, class4
, and
class5
are unused.
classN
, you can make yourself a local scratch
directory under /home/cN/scratch
. (These directories are
accessible from all the machines, but it is fastest to use local disk
space.) Note that these directories are not backed up. Never leave important files in the scratch
directories. The scratch space is meant for things like
compiler output that can be recreated if necessary.
