Interactive Computing Resources

Interactive resources are those which you log into the system and run applications in real time, directly from the command line.  Users share the CPU and memory resoruces of the systems.   These resources are available to both undergraduate and graduate students taking courses in the MAE department. Please use mae-comp1 by default. It is running a more current version and is connected to the College storage. Please only use mae-comp3 and mae-comp9 for legacy applications or to run simulations with data in the old home directories.

Step 1 - Connect to COE-Net using Pulse Secure (Skip this step if you're on a COE computer.)

You will need to connect to Pulse Secure first.  Please see the following link to download and setup Pulse Secure. https://wiki.engineering.osu.edu/pages/viewpage.action?pageId=8654668

Step 2.1 - Connect using SSH

If you're on a Mac, you can use Terminal.  On a Windows computer, you will need to download PuTTY. ssh lastname.#@mae-comp1.coeit.osu.edu

Step 2.2 - Connect using FastX v3

To use a graphic user interface, you will need to connect using FastX v3.  Please see the following link to download and setup FastX v3.
