Setup¶
PCs¶
Grappa can be accessed from anywhere using your login credentials & ssh key. icehap-daq can be accessed directly from the local network via: icehap-daq@10.25.121.183. If you’re outside the university network, access icehap-daq via Grappa. The password for icehap-daq is the standard ICEHAP Lab password.
Software¶
The primary software repo (degg_measurements) is usually located under ‘software’.
On icehap-daq: /home/icehap-daq/software/degg_measurements.
On Grappa: /disk20/fat/software/degg_measurements.
Data lives in the corresponding /data directories.
In data, you can find both json and fat_calibration.
Meta-data files (as explained in previous sections) are found in json.
Unprocessed files are in fat_calibration.
When the data lives on icehap-daq, this is the “local” data, on Grappa it’s the “remote”.
Screen¶
There are already some previous tips about how to use screen, but I’ll repeat them here.
On icehap-daq the DAQ script and setup run in screen sessions.
On Grappa, the remote analyses run in screen sessions.
You can check the screens available with screen -ls, and attach to them with screen -r <name>.
Once in a screen, detach with ‘control+a’, and then ‘d’.
Screen sessions only keep a limited amount of previous lines in memory, you can access some of them by doign ‘control+a’, then ‘escape’.
Navigate with the up and down arrow keys.
Otherwise the screen sessions operate as normal terminals.
On Grappa, the analysis screen sessions are logged in /disk20/fat/data/logs.
