Overview

At UiO we have a powerful resource of computers available for running various meteorological codes. The documentation here is provided to help you work on the servers efficiently from your own desktop. These guides will hopefully also be useful for running code on any other cluster computers including the Norwegian Super Computing Resources and ECMWF.

For some information on the Abel cluster resources available at UiO see abel.

To see the status of the servers check here: AbelLog.

To see the CPU and Memory usage of the cluster check here: AbelCPU

Connecting to the Servers

There are many tools that make connecting to the servers easier, from passwordless login (which is more secure), to making sure you have your display settings
