Login Cluster

Cluster name: bwfilestorage-login.lsdf.kit.edu

The login cluster are directly accessible by end users. These nodes are used for interactive login, file management, data retrieving and restoring.
Four nodes are dedicated to this service but they are all accessible via one host name and a DNS round-robin alias distributes the login sessions to the different login nodes.


Environment Variables:

$SHELL=/bin/bash 
$USER=oe_loginname
$BWFS=$BWFILESTORAGE=/bwfilestorage/oe/oe_groupname/oe_loginname
$SNAPSHOTS=/bwfilestorage/oe/.snapshots
$TEMP=/temp/oe/oe_groupname/oe_loginname

oe: fileset name per organization; prefix for login name and group name
