The Genomic Institute public server is courtyard.gi.ucsc.edu

To access the server, first request an account by emailing cluster-admin@soe.ucsc.edu. If you already have an account on kolossus, please provide your full name, your username on the server kolossus and the name of your PI and the lab or project you are working with. If you are affiliated with Genomic Institute, but do not have an account on kolossus, please make an appointment with the SysAdmin to setup your account in person.

You can also request to be added to a group. A group for a PI is named as PI's_lastname_lab or the name of a project such as treehouse.

After you get the account, you can login by typing:

 ssh your_username@courtyard.gi.ucsc.edu

Your home directory path is /public/home/your_username. Your home directory quota is 30GB.

A group's directory's path is /public/groups/name_of_the_group You can create your directory under there. You share the disk space with your group mates. The quota for your group is 10TB.
