 == Access ==
-* Linux and Mac OS users can login within the DiSC internet connection using a terminal with the command:
+The Dalton cluster is being migrated to the new system. Access information will be updated as soon as the migration is complete.
- ssh account@192.168.9.14
-:or from outside the Department using
- ssh -p 50002 account@147.162.63.10
-:where "account" is the user's account.
-* Windows users can use an interface program to the ssh service, e.g. [http://www.putty.org/ Putty].
-== Queues ==
-The queue manager is [[LL]] for the IBM nodes and [[PBS]] for the Intel nodes. The following queues are available:
-* '''dalton-IBM''': max nodes 5, max walltime 2 weeks (336 hours)
-* '''dalton-Intel''': max nodes 3, max walltime 2 weeks (336 hours)
-== Example PBS file ==
-A typical [[PBS]] input file script will be as follow (see the [[Support]] page for more help):
- <nowiki>#</nowiki>!/bin/sh --login
- <nowiki>#</nowiki>PBS -N ''jobname''
- <nowiki>#</nowiki>PBS -A ''account''
- <nowiki>#</nowiki>PBS -q dalton-intel
- <nowiki>#</nowiki>PBS -l nodes=''n''
- <nowiki>#</nowiki>PBS -w ''time in hh:mm:ss format''
- ''commands to execute''
-while a typical [[LL]] input file script will be as follow (see the [[Support]] page for more help):
- TODO
- ''commands to execute''
-where the parts in ''italic'' should be changed as appropriate.
