A terminal connection to the cluster opens on your windows machine by taking advantage of the tool PuTTY. PuTTY, compare Figure, requires

host name (VSC 2: vsc2.vsc.ac.at, VSC 3: vsc3.vsc.ac.at),
port: 22,
connection type: SSH,

after clicking *open// you will be asked for your user name, password, and OTP.

Here, the usual linux commands apply, e.g.,

[<username>@l21 ~]$ pwd              [gives back the current path]
[<username>@l21 ~]$ ls               [lists all directories and files which are in the directory]
[<username>@l21 ~]$ mkdir <dir>      [make directory]
[<username>@l21 ~]$ cp <a> <b>       [copy  <a> in <b>]
[<username>@l21 ~]$ mv <a> <b>       [move  <a> in <b>]

In this terminal, your application can be (re-)compiled. Please use the latest “Intel” MPI-Environment as described in MPI Environment for VSC-2 (SGE). On VSC-3, batch jobs are submitted under SLURM instead of SGE.
