SSH to a compute node

You can login to compute nodes by either forwarding your step ssh certificate via ssh -A <username>@musica.vie.asc.ac.at, or by using a SSH key on the login node.

No device auth flow on compute nodes

Due to technical restrictions in SLURM, we cannot use the device auth flow on compute nodes.

Creating a SSH key for your account

You can create a SSH key in your account and add it to .ssh/authorized_keys in order to jump to other hosts in the MUSICA cluster.

ssh-keygen -f ~/.ssh/id_rsa -q -N ""
cat .ssh/id_rsa.pub >> .ssh/authorized_keys
chmod 0600 .ssh/authorized_keys

Now you can login via the just created SSH key to any node where you have a job running.
