You need to first register as a SLAC user and obtain a SLAC computing account. The initial account setup related info can be found on the Tier2 page, along with other info on local computing at SLAC.
Among the various public machines at SLAC, for ATLAS work you should ssh to either:
rhel4-32.slac.stanford.edu (a cluster of a few nodes good for ATLAS work)
atlint01.slac.stanford.edu (an ATLAS machine)
If you have any questions please post them to the Non-Grid Jobs at SLAC Forum in the ATLAS Hypernews system, where all local SLAC ATLAS computing issues are discussed. (If you don't have an ATLAS account, please mail me.)
Here's how to get up and running quick:
# Do this just once:
cp ~ahaas/.bashrc .
cp ~ahaas/.profile .
mkdir .hepix; cp ~ahaas/.hepix/* .hepix/
echo "none" > ATLCURRENT
mkdir ~/reldirs
cp -r ~ahaas/cmthome .
#And you may want to have an area with >500MB of storage space (the /afs home limit).
#If you're in group "atlas" and/or "atlas-user" (check with "groups")...
mkdir /afs/slac.stanford.edu/g/atlas/work/<firstLetterOfUsername>/<username>
#Otherwise you have to use /scratch areas on the machines...
mkdir /scratch/<username>
#Everytime you log in and want to use an ATLAS release (15.2.0.1, for example):
bash
mkdir ~/reldirs/15.2.0 #if it doesn't already exist (where 15.2.0 is the first 3 numbers of the release)
cd reldirs/15.2.0
. ~/cmthome/setup.sh -tag=15.2.0.1
#Now you can run athena, for example:
get_files -jo HelloWorldOptions.py
athena.py HelloWorldOptions.py
#Analysis skeleton for AOD analysis:
cmt co -r UserAnalysis-00-13-17 PhysicsAnalysis/AnalysisCommon/UserAnalysis
#If no ATLAS access: cp -r ~ahaas/reldirs/15.3.1/PhysicsAnalysis .
cd PhysicsAnalysis/AnalysisCommon/UserAnalysis/cmt ; make; cd -
You should be able to run anything from the CERN workbook.
Our old static page has some possibly still relevant but perhaps out of date info.
