Getting Started

This is a specific documentation dedicated to Euclid members using CC-IN2P3 resources. The general CC-IN2P3 documentation starting page is here.

Creating a CC-IN2P3 account

You can request an account at the CC-IN2P3 provided that:

  • you are a Euclid Consortium member contributing to the SDC-France infrastructure or to Processing Functions deliveries under French responsibility or co-responsibility (or you have the explicit agreement of the SDC-FR manager);
  • you are working in a IN2P3 laboratory or have the explicit agreement of the representative of the Euclid CC-IN2P3 collaboration;

The relevant informations on how to get an account are available here.

Connexion to interactive servers

CC-IN2P3 provides any user with a computing account two interactive clusters to prepare their tasks before they are submitted to the computing platform: development, test, etc. The general-purpose cluster cca and the ccahm cluster providing a large RAM capability and a local partition on SSD disk /scratch_ssd.

Interactive clusters are accessible with the following syntax : 

ssh -Y <username>@cca.in2p3.fr

or 

ssh -Y <username>@ccahm.in2p3.fr

cca.in2p3.fr and ccahm.in2p3.fr are aliases redirecting to the least loaded server of each cluster.

For more details on using the interacting servers, in particular best practices, see the dedicated documentation.

Notebooks platform

A Jupyter Notebooks Platform is provided to any user having a computing account at CC-IN2P3. It is possible add a EDEN 3.1 Kernel to the platform, see documentation here.
Jupyter memory for all Euclidians is 16 GB by default. You can ask us if you want more.
