The access to the cluster is possible only within the IRB network

Login node

Access from the RBI network

Linux / Mac / Windows

When first requesting access to the cluster you will be asked to provide a public ssh key and then an account will be created for you.

Authentication to the cluster is only possible via ssh key, not a password. If you do not already have an ssh key you can generate a new one with the following command on your UNIX command line:

ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -f ~/.ssh/id_ed25519 -N ""

The public key can then be see by running:

cat ~/.ssh/id_ed25519.pub

The output should be emailed to the cluster administrator inorder to get you access to the cluster.

More in depth information on generating and using ssh keys can be found here.

The cluster can be access from the command line (Linux, Mac or Windows Linux Subsystem) with:

ssh <username>@orthus.cir.irb.hr

Access from outside the RBI network

If you access the cluster from outside the RBI network you will first have to establish a VPN connection to RBI. Information on how to use VPN can be found here. Once the VPN is established, the cluster can be accessed following the instructions in Access from the RBI network.
