Server Information

ENS provides an impressive amount of compute power in the form of remote compute servers. These servers have access to engineering software (such as Fluent and Matlab) and are useful for running multi-hour or multi-day simulations.

• Linux Compute Servers
• Linux Workstations
• Solaris Workstations
• Windows Virtual Lab

For detailed information about how to connect to these servers, see this page.

Some things to know first:

• You must first connect to the Engineering network before you are able to connect to these servers.
• You will need to login using your Engineering user name and password.
• You may need to use the computer's full name machine_name.engr.colostate.edu instead of just machine_name to connect.

Linux Compute Servers

These servers have access to the following engineering software:
ABAQUS, Adams. CHEMKIN, Fluent (64 bit), Gambit, Matlab (64 bit), Octave, rdss
The above software can be found in /usr/local/. They also have GNU compilers like c/c++ and g77.

Before you select a server to connect to, you should view the load on these servers. Then, pick the one with the least load.

*NOTE: The compute server Teto can only be accessed from a Sun Ray thin client.

Linux Workstations

These workstations have access to the following engineering software:
ABAQUS, Adams, CHEMKIN, Fluent (64 bit), Gambit, Matlab (64 bit), Octave, rdss
The above software can be found in /usr/local/. They also have the GNU compilers like c/c++ and g77.

Solaris Workstations

These workstations have access to the following engineering software:
Adams, Fluent (64 bit), CHEMKIN, Gambit, Matlab (64 bit), Pro/ENGINEER
The above software can be found in /usr/local/. They also have the GNU compilers like c/c++ and g77.

Windows Virtual Lab
