How to connect from Windows?

To get started see the introduction to VSC 1. Compared to this introduction, the login is modified:

# Uni Wien
ssh <username>@vsc2.univie.ac.at
# TU Wien
ssh <username>@vsc2.tuwien.ac.at
# Boku Wien
ssh <username>@vsc2.boku.ac.at

For advanced topics see also Sun grid engine (SGE).

NOTE: when the option #$ -V is specified this error message will be generated in one of the output files of the grid engine:

/bin/sh: module: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file
/bin/sh: error importing function definition for `module'
bash: module: line 1: syntax error: unexpected end of file
bash: error importing function definition for `module'

This message occurs due to a known bug in the grid engine which cannot handle functions defined in the user environment. This message can be safely ignored. This error message can be avoided by exporting particular environment variables only in your job-script:

#$ -v PATH
#$ -v LD_LIBRARY_PATH
