Notes:

1.        The full address for Cornell hosted servers is <name>.via.cornell.edu.

2.        Precision is not located at Cornell. At this time, the only access to precision is by ssh from rimmer.

3.        Ssh, pycharm, and vscode via ssh should work on all servers except precision.

4.        Trillian and Precision have all image datasets on a RAID.

5.        When a system has Apache configured it can run both Simba the web data system and VSimba the image viewer that can be used in personal accounts.

6.        Jupyter lab is like a version of colab that works on your personal account. I prefer that to vscode (over ssh) but that is a matter of personal choice as they can both perform similar functions

7.        For large image data runs save any image results in your personal directory on the RAID. /mnt/raid/<id>/ do not save them in your home account which is fast but space limited.

8.        Vscode access through ssh should be possible directly to all servers except precision; for precision you will need to tunnel through rimmer (or develop on rimmer or trillian and copy to precision.
