Jan 8 2020 Storage Flags Enforced
   Storage flags are now enforced for all PBS jobs. You must request the
   storage you wish to use in your PBS jobs. For example:

       -l storage=scratch/ab12+gdata/yz98
   
   Any storage not requested will not be visible in jobs.

[aaa777@gadi-login-02 ~]$


In order to run graphical tools, you need to enable X Windowing system on local system before ssh. This can be done by running X-Server like XQuartz (Mac), MobaXterm (MS Windows), startx or similar (Linux). Then ssh to gadi: 

Code Block
ssh -Y aaa777@gadi.nci.org.au

-Y option enables forwarding of trusted X protocol mesgs between X-Server on local system and X programs on gadi.

Once logged in, check environment variable DISPLAY is set and test with a simple graphical utility like xclock. Example:

Code Block
$ echo $DISPLAY
localhost:76.0

$ xclock                # A window with analogue clock will be displayed on local system

Message of the Day

When logging in, the first thing you see under the welcome text is the Mesage of the Day (motd). You can see an example in the above block. Please consider it a noticeboard and read it on every login. News and status updates relevant to Gadi users will be posted to it.
