Public install at ITER

On the hpc-login servers of ITER there is a public installation of OMFIT available. OMFIT can be executed by running the following script (which will take care of setting the right execution environment):

module purge
module use /home/ITER/menghio/atom/modules
module load atom
omfit

Tip

New users might want to take a look at the Run section.

Warning

On the ITER clusters the IMAS environment is loaded with module load IMAS instead of the module load imas that is commonly used elsewhere. The module load imas will still execute on the ITER clusters, but the environment itself will not work properly!

Use No-Machine

It is highly recommended to run OMFIT using No-Machine, since this will make interactivity of the GUIs and plots more responsive than using X via SSH. Connections should point to sdcc-login.iter.org and use the NX protocol.
