Windows HPC

Access

The windows HPC server is whpc-01.grit.ucsb.edu. It can be logged into with your GRIT SSO credentials via RDP or The Authentik web RDP. After login you will receive a brief error message followed by a brief flash of a command prompt before being setup with your desktop, this is normal and part of the automated home folder mapping. 

Home Folder

to avoid confusion and permissions issues the windows home folder is redirected to /home/$username/WHPC/ 

Mapping additional home folders

To map additional home folders create a file in your home directory called 

whpc-maps

with no suffix (ie not .txt) and you can add automated mounts with the following format:

G|nolock,rw,soft,vers=4|hoodoo.geog.ucsb.edu:/raid/staff-geog/grit_share

where G is the drive letter, nolock,rw,soft,vers-4 are the NFS options and hoodoo.geog.ucsb.edu:/raid/staff-geog/grit_share is the NFS path. Note that due to limitations with windows only your primary UID and GID are passed so some group mounts may not work as expected. 

The same can be done on whpc-01.grit.ucsb.edu in C:\DriveMaps\<username>\maps if you prefer
