Please watch | The Sapelo2 High Performance Computing (HPC) cluster runs a headless Linux distribution as the operating system on each of its constituent nodes. The term headless refers to the fact that these nodes do not have a desktop graphical user interface (GUI) installed by default. Graphical desktop environments consume resources that analyses could otherwise use, so users employ a command-line interface (CLI) instead. To interact with these resources, users connect to a remote terminal via SSH and execute commands. | ||
The Linux Training workshop provides hands-on practice of the fundamental Linux commands necessary to interact with HPC resources. | |||
'''Prerequisite:''' Please watch the introductory videos on Linux, basic Linux terms, and Linux Paths and Directories (total ~17 minutes) '''before attending the training workshop'''. | |||

Linux Training for Linux-inexperienced Cluster New Users
The Sapelo2 High Performance Computing (HPC) cluster runs a headless Linux distribution as the operating system on each of its constituent nodes. The term headless refers to the fact that these nodes do not have a desktop graphical user interface (GUI) installed by default. Graphical desktop environments consume resources that analyses could otherwise use, so users employ a command-line interface (CLI) instead. To interact with these resources, users connect to a remote terminal via SSH and execute commands.
The Linux Training workshop provides hands-on practice of the fundamental Linux commands necessary to interact with HPC resources.
Prerequisite: Please watch the introductory videos on Linux, basic Linux terms, and Linux Paths and Directories (total ~17 minutes) before attending the training workshop.
Training Goals:
1. Understand fundamental concepts of Linux working environment (filesystem hierarchy, path, PATH, etc.)
2. Know how to use Linux common commands (ls, cd, pwd, cat, more, nano, mkdir, rm, cp, mv, etc.)
