+Introduction 
+============
+
+
+
+  
+
+Welcome to Anselm supercomputer cluster. The Anselm cluster consists of
+209 compute nodes, totaling 3344 compute cores with 15TB RAM and giving
+over 94 Tflop/s theoretical peak performance. Each node is a <span
+class="WYSIWYG_LINK">powerful</span> x86-64 computer, equipped with 16
+cores, at least 64GB RAM, and 500GB harddrive. Nodes are interconnected
+by fully non-blocking fat-tree Infiniband network and equipped with
+Intel Sandy Bridge processors. A few nodes are also equipped with NVIDIA
+Kepler GPU or Intel Xeon Phi MIC accelerators. Read more in [Hardware
+Overview](https://docs.it4i.cz/anselm-cluster-documentation/hardware-overview).
+
+The cluster runs bullx Linux [<span
+class="WYSIWYG_LINK"></span>](http://www.bull.com/bullx-logiciels/systeme-exploitation.html)[operating
+system](https://docs.it4i.cz/anselm-cluster-documentation/software/operating-system),
+which is compatible with the <span class="WYSIWYG_LINK">RedHat</span>
+[<span class="WYSIWYG_LINK">Linux
+family.</span>](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/1/1b/Linux_Distribution_Timeline.svg)
+We have installed a wide range of
+[software](https://docs.it4i.cz/anselm-cluster-documentation/software)
+packages targeted at different scientific domains. These packages are
+accessible via the [modules
+environment](https://docs.it4i.cz/anselm-cluster-documentation/environment-and-modules).

+Shell access and data transfer 
+==============================
+
+
+
+  
+
+Interactive Login
+-----------------
+
+The Anselm cluster is accessed by SSH protocol via login nodes login1
+and login2 at address anselm.it4i.cz. The login nodes may be addressed
+specifically, by prepending the login node name to the address.
+
+  Login address           Port   Protocol   Login node
+  ----------------------- ------ ---------- ----------------------------------------------
+  anselm.it4i.cz          22     ssh        round-robin DNS record for login1 and login2
+  login1.anselm.it4i.cz   22     ssh        login1
+  login2.anselm.it4i.cz   22     ssh        login2
+
+The authentication is by the [private
+key](https://docs.it4i.cz/get-started-with-it4innovations/accessing-the-clusters/shell-access-and-data-transfer/ssh-keys)
+
+Please verify SSH fingerprints during the first logon. They are

+
+Data Transfer
+-------------
+
+Data in and out of the system may be transferred by the
+[scp](http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_copy) and sftp
+protocols. <span class="discreet">(Not available yet.) In case large
+volumes of data are transferred, use dedicated data mover node
+dm1.anselm.it4i.cz for increased performance.</span>

+
+ The authentication is by the [private
+key](https://docs.it4i.cz/get-started-with-it4innovations/accessing-the-clusters/shell-access-and-data-transfer/ssh-keys)
+
+Data transfer rates up to **160MB/s** can be achieved with scp or sftp.
+1TB may be transferred in 1:50h.
+
+To achieve 160MB/s transfer rates, the end user must be connected by 10G
+line all the way to IT4Innovations and use computer with fast processor
+for the transfer. Using Gigabit ethernet connection, up to 110MB/s may
+be expected.  Fast cipher (aes128-ctr) should be used.
+
+If you experience degraded data transfer performance, consult your local
+network provider.
+
+On linux or Mac, use scp or sftp client to transfer the data to Anselm:
+
+``` 
+local $ scp -i /path/to/id_rsa my-local-file username@anselm.it4i.cz:directory/file
+```
+
+``` 
+local $ scp -i /path/to/id_rsa -r my-local-dir username@anselm.it4i.cz:directory
+```
+
+> or
+
+``` 
+local $ sftp -o IdentityFile=/path/to/id_rsa username@anselm.it4i.cz
+```
+
+Very convenient way to transfer files in and out of the Anselm computer
+is via the fuse filesystem
+[sshfs](http://linux.die.net/man/1/sshfs)
+
+``` 
+local $ sshfs -o IdentityFile=/path/to/id_rsa username@anselm.it4i.cz:. mountpoint
+```
+
+Using sshfs, the users Anselm home directory will be mounted on your
+local computer, just like an external disk.
+
+Learn more on ssh, scp and sshfs by reading the manpages
+
+``` 
+$ man ssh
+$ man scp
+$ man sshfs
+```
+
+On Windows, use [WinSCP
+client](http://winscp.net/eng/download.php) to transfer
+the data. The [win-sshfs
+client](http://code.google.com/p/win-sshfs/) provides a
+way to mount the Anselm filesystems directly as an external disc.
+
+More information about the shared file systems is available
+[here](https://docs.it4i.cz/anselm-cluster-documentation/storage-1/storage).

+Outgoing connections 
+====================
+
+
+
+  
+
+Connection restrictions
+-----------------------
+
+Outgoing connections, from Anselm Cluster login nodes to the outside
+world, are restricted to following ports:
+
+  Port   Protocol
+  ------ ----------
+  22     ssh
+  80     http
+  443    https
+  9418   git
+
+Please use **ssh port forwarding** and proxy servers to connect from
+Anselm to all other remote ports.
+
+Outgoing connections, from Anselm Cluster compute nodes are restricted
+to the internal network. Direct connections form compute nodes to
+outside world are cut.
+
+Port forwarding
+---------------
+
+### []()Port forwarding from login nodes
+
+Port forwarding allows an application running on Anselm to connect to
+arbitrary remote host and port.
+
+It works by tunneling the connection from Anselm back to users
+workstation and forwarding from the workstation to the remote host.
+
+Pick some unused port on Anselm login node  (for example 6000) and
+establish the port forwarding:
+
+``` 
+local $ ssh -R 6000:remote.host.com:1234 anselm.it4i.cz
+```
+
+In this example, we establish port forwarding between port 6000 on
+Anselm and  port 1234 on the remote.host.com. By accessing
+localhost:6000 on Anselm, an application will see response of
+remote.host.com:1234. The traffic will run via users local workstation.
+
+Port forwarding may be done **using PuTTY** as well. On the PuTTY
+Configuration screen, load your Anselm configuration first. Then go to
+Connection->SSH->Tunnels to set up the port forwarding. Click
+Remote radio button. Insert 6000 to Source port textbox. Insert
+remote.host.com:1234. Click Add button, then Open.
+
+Port forwarding may be established directly to the remote host. However,
+this requires that user has ssh access to remote.host.com
+
+``` 
+$ ssh -L 6000:localhost:1234 remote.host.com
+```
+
+NotePort number 6000 is chosen as an example only. Pick any free port.
+
+### []()Port forwarding from compute nodes
+
+Remote port forwarding from compute nodes allows applications running on
+the compute nodes to access hosts outside Anselm Cluster.
+
+First, establish the remote port forwarding form the login node, as
+[described above](#port-forwarding-from-login-nodes).
+
+Second, invoke port forwarding from the compute node to the login node.
+Insert following line into your jobscript or interactive shell
+
+``` 
+$ ssh  -TN -f -L 6000:localhost:6000 login1
+```
+
+In this example, we assume that port forwarding from login1:6000 to
+remote.host.com:1234 has been established beforehand. By accessing
+localhost:6000, an application running on a compute node will see
+response of remote.host.com:1234
+
+### Using proxy servers
+
+Port forwarding is static, each single port is mapped to a particular
+port on remote host. Connection to other remote host, requires new
+forward.
+
+Applications with inbuilt proxy support, experience unlimited access to
+remote hosts, via single proxy server.
+
+To establish local proxy server on your workstation, install and run
+SOCKS proxy server software. On Linux, sshd demon provides the
+functionality. To establish SOCKS proxy server listening on port 1080
+run:
+
+``` 
+local $ ssh -D 1080 localhost
+```
+
+On Windows, install and run the free, open source [Sock
+Puppet](http://sockspuppet.com/) server.
+
+Once the proxy server is running, establish ssh port forwarding from
+Anselm to the proxy server, port 1080, exactly as [described
+above](#port-forwarding-from-login-nodes).
+
+``` 
+local $ ssh -R 6000:localhost:1080 anselm.it4i.cz
+```
+
+Now, configure the applications proxy settings to **localhost:6000**.
+Use port forwarding  to access the [proxy server from compute
+nodes](#port-forwarding-from-compute-nodes) as well .
