Account creation, settings and privileges for different accounts
Accounts now use Pitt’s, single sign on solution and hence need to be processed through Gracie.
The account priviledges can be changed by any of the admins/sudo-ers. Add the usernames to the /etc/group
file. For ex:
sudo vim /etc/group
and then add the username xyz123
to the adm
and sudo
list.
Setting up Conda for your account
Conda should already be installed for all users. You can SSH into Dara using your Pitt username and password. Be sure to either be connected to the University LAN or via the Physics and Astronomy VPN.
Add the following code snippet to your local .bashrc
file.
# >>> conda initialize >>>
# !! Contents within this block are managed by 'conda init' !!
__conda_setup="$('/home/miniconda3/bin/conda' 'shell.bash' 'hook' 2> /dev/null)"
if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then
eval "$__conda_setup"
else
if [ -f "/home/miniconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh" ]; then
. "/home/miniconda3/etc/profile.d/conda.sh"
else
export PATH="/home/miniconda3/bin:$PATH"
fi
fi
unset __conda_setup
# <<< conda initialize <<<
Paths for GPU drivers
Adding the following to your .bashrc
and .bash_profile
files might be necessary to provide necessary cuda paths
#NVIDIA EXPTS
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/cuda/extras/CUPTI/lib64/
