Once the new UNIX account is established the user receives an access to LCLS analysis machines. The names of the hosts that users can use for interactive purposes (including doing interactive analysis) may depend on the particular experiment, the list is usually communicated to the PI. In addition to interactive hosts there is a dedicated processing farm for batch jobs. More information about computing at LCLS can be found here.

Logging in

The LCLS analysis machines are accessible from a SLAC network through the "bastion hostshost":

pslogin
psdev

and from outside of SLAC using one of the nodesnode:

psexport.slac.stanford.edu
psimport.slac.stanford.edu

To login to analysis host one has to first login to a dedicated "gateway" (pslogin, psdev, psexport, or psimport or psexport), then connect to one of the analysis hosts trough the psananeh (for experiments in NEH) or psanafeh (for experiments in FEH) "gateway". The only login type supported by LCLS machines is ssh. Here is the example of the login session from SLAC general network:

. /reg/g/psdm/etc/ana_env.sh

For C-type thell shell (e.g. tcsh) the command should be:
