| 7 | Starting from r1255, PALM allows full remote access of the Berlin complex of HLRNIII. Since the batch compute nodes do not allow to use ssh/scp (which is required by '''mrun''' for carrying out several crucial tasks, e.g. for automatic submission of restart runs), the ssh/scp commands are executed on one of the login nodes (blogin1) as a workaround. Therefore, blogin1 must be a known host for ssh/scp. This requires the user to carry out the following three steps just once: |
| 8 | |
| 9 | 1. Login on blogin and create a pair of private/public ssh-keys (replace <hlrn-username> by your HLRN-username): |
| 10 | {{{ |
| 11 | ssh <hlrn-username>@blogin1.hlrn.de |
| 12 | ssh-keygen -t dsa |
| 13 | }}} |
| 14 | Enter <return> for any query, until the shell-prompt appears again. |
| 15 | |
| 16 | 2. On blogin, define the public key as one of the authorized keys to access the system: |
| 17 | {{{ |
| 18 | cat id_dsa.pub >> authorized_keys |
| 19 | }}} |
| 20 | 3. Still logged in on blogin, login on blogin1: |
| 21 | {{{ |
| 22 | ssh <hlrn-username>@blogin1 |
| 23 | }}} |
| 24 | After the third step, the message |
| 25 | {{{ |
| 26 | Warning: Permanently added 'blogin1,130.73.233.1' (RSA) to the list of known hosts. |
| 27 | }}} |
| 28 | should appear on the terminal. |
