Tier-2 access#

Currently, Genius and wICE are the two Tier-2 clusters in production at KU Leuven. Both clusters run on the Rocky Linux 9.6 operating system. The access to both machines is possible

  • either via the Genius login nodes (see below), as wICE itself has no dedicated login node

  • or via the Open OnDemand portal in your web browser

Login infrastructure#

Note

Restrictions apply for direct login using SSH. Make sure to read the section on access restrictions before proceeding.

You can access the KU Leuven Tier-2 either through login.hpc.kuleuven.be or login-genius.hpc.kuleuven.be. This will loadbalance your connection to one of the 4 Genius login nodes.
