Server Access

For the meantime when you request access to the Akraino Pods at UNH-IOL we will ask that you send us your public ssh key so we can add it to the root users of those machines.

If you wish to have your own user we can get that setup, but it is much quicker and easier if you just stick with the root user.

IPMI Access

Once you have successfully connected to the VPN there is a file located in each machine in /opt called ipmi_info.txt, this file has the username and password for the IPMI interfaces.

IMPORTANT:

Please write down the information or copy the file somewhere safe in case of the machines getting reinstalled and the file will be gone. We are trying to prevent sending emails with passwords in them. If for some reason you did not have this info before it got wiped you can email akraino-lab@iol.unh.edu and we will help you by making a new file in the machines with the IPMI username and passwordWhen booking a pod, the Akraino dashboard will provide IPMI credentials via email.

You can access an IPMI interface like the example below:

ampere1-ampere1-ipmi.akr.iol.unh.edu
