titleTasks - Connect to HPCF
  1. Start the Mobaxterm application and open a local terminal
  2. Login to the RACC using  ssh -X cluster.act.rdg.ac.uk
  3. On the cluster type the command:  ssh troifsX@ecaccess.ecmwf.int      Note:  Instead of troifsX you should use your ECMWF training user-ID

  4. You will be prompted for the hostname with a choice between ecgate, cca and ccb.  You should select ccb.
  5. When you have completed your work you can disconnect from ccb by typing exit at the command prompt.

The following tasks need to be carried out only once in order to set up the training accounts and the OpenIFS 43r3 model.

titleTasks - Set up training account
  1. After the first login type the following command:  /home/ectrain/troifs0/setup-cray/my43
  2. Log out of the training account by typing exit
  3. Login once more using  ssh troifsX@ecaccess.ecmwf.int

  4. Type the following command:  get43

The actions above will ensure that your training account receives required scripts and shell configuration files.

The last command will copy the model binaries and input files to your account for version 43r3.


Instead of using the login nodes of the HPCF we will use an interactive session to ask for computing resources and fast temporary disk. This also allows to run parallel jobs in the terminal window.
