Compute servers

Computer centre has various servers for sequential computes. For multi-core parallel job requirements use of super computing facility is recommended (check CC website for HPC login form).

Details about Linux compute servers and some of the software installed on them are briefed below.

• akash1,akash2,akash3.cc.iitk.ac.in : Abaqus, Ansys, Matlab, Comsol. Presently akash2 and akash3 are used as licence server.
• appserver.cc.iitk.ac.in: Ansys/Fluent, Maple, Comsol, ilog/cplex and Tecplot.
• mathserver.cc.iitk.ac.in : Primaroly Matlab and Mathematica
• aatish.cc.iitk.ac.in : Ansys, abaqus, comsol, tecplot.
• falaq.cc.iitk.ac.in: ABAQUS, ILOG/CPLEX, MSC(Nastra/Patran) Mathematica, hyperworks,tecplot.
• workstation servers: Accelrys. refer to

Users can login to a server by following command from remote Linux terminal. All the above server belongs to domain cc.iitk.ac.in. I.e use <server-name>.cc.iitk.ac.in to connect from remote.

# ssh <IITK-username>@<server-name> -X 
e.g. ssh soumitri@mathserver.cc.iitk.ac.in -X

Free command line utility such as putty, MobaXterm, KiTTY etc. can be installed in windows for shell access to this servers.
