Before proceeding any further you have to make sure you can use Gateway without any issues.

There are number ways to work at Gateway:

• Nomachine NX: Click here for detailed documentation
• SSH: Click here for detailed documentation
• X2Go: Click here for detailed documentation 
• VNC: Click here for detailed documentation

During tutorials, and during your day to day activities you will require access to multiple, external, resources. There are numerous places where you can find information related to various topics. Make sure you can easily reach these locations:

• IMAS related documentation: Integrated Modelling Home Page
• WPCD for integrated modelling (so called 'TWiki'): TWiki
• General Support page (WPCD related issues): support
• ETS support tracker (ETS related issues): support
• JIRA (for IMAS related issues): JIRA
• How to submit trackers: HowToReportAnIssue
• Gateway's wiki: Gateway
• Submitting jobs into Marconi: SLURM
• TODO: do we have any other resources to add here?

1. Setting up environment

Before you proceed with any exercises it's important to set up IMAS environment in your SSH/NX session. This topic will be discussed in details here: 05.3. IMAS - basic topics - environment set-up(POZ'19Oct)

However, to make sure we can start without any issues, please run following commands in terminal session:

> module load imasenv/3.24.0/rc
> mkdir -p $ITMWORK/imas-keplers

# for tcsh
> setenv KEPLER_DIR $ITMWORK/imas-keplers

# for bash
> export KEPLER_DIR=$ITMWORK/imas-keplers

> kepler_install my_first_kepler
> kepler_avail
> kepler_load my_first_kepler
> imasdb test
> kepler
