JASMIN

JASMIN is the UKs environmental data analysis platform. The lab stores its data on JASMIN at /gws/nopw/j04/global_ex.

Resources

  • Official documentation 🔗
  • Jupyter notebook service 🔗
  • List of Scientific Servers 🔗
  • Slurm Queue information 🔗
  • Using Jupyter notebooks on JASMIN without their own service 🔗: This has the advantage that you can stay within your chosen IDE, use more memory, and keep working when the notebook service is down.

Getting started

The official documentation is very good for setting up an account and logging in for the first time.

Login Tip

To make the login easier, I have config file on my local machine at /Users/user/.ssh/config (the same file can have multiple hosts for different supercomputers):

Host jasmin
HostName sci-ph-01.jasmin.ac.uk
User jamd1
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_jasmin
ProxyJump login-02.jasmin.ac.uk

This means I can just type `ssh jasmin` to login directly to the sci server in one go.
