Access the cluster using SSH 🔒

You may find it’s easier to access the cluster using SSH for running non-GUI applications, especially if you are a Mac or Linux user. Windows users can use git bash or PuTTY. If you need to run GUI applications, X2Go is recommended.

1) Log into the cluster head node using SSH: 

ssh USERNAME@neurocomp0.utsc.utoronto.ca

2) Start a “tmux” session on the head node to keep your job running even if your network connection to the cluster gets disconnected, for example: 

tmux new -s tmuxSESSIONname
