Overview

Access the Aloe browser-based interactive web portal by logging in through the web portal’s single sign-on page using your WINEDS login and password. Through this portal, you can manage file systems, create and monitor jobs, and view and manage interactive sessions.

The Aloe team is aware that the web portal is slow to initially load and are working on a solution.

Web Portal

Using the web portal requires you to be connected to the Cisco VPN

On a compatible web browser open this link: https://aloe.asre.rc.asu.edu

  1. Once logged in you will see this home screen:

    1. Files

      1. This will connect to your home directory.

    2. Jobs

      1. Active Jobs: This will show all of the active jobs that are running on the supercomputer

    3. Interactive Apps

      1. Allows jobs with graphical user interfaces (GUIs) such as Aloe Desktop, Matlab, RStudio Desktop, SAS, Stata, and Jupyter.

    4. System

      1. Aloe Shell Access: This will launch an interactive shell (terminal) session on one of the Aloe login nodes. This offers limited functionality compared to using SSH connections directly, but can be used for most basic commands.

      2. Aloe Status: This is the status page of the Aloe supercomputer. This status page lists all of the available nodes on the supercomputer and if they are currently free, allocated, or down.

    5. My Interactive Sessions:

      1. This will show all of the interactive sessions that you have open on the supercomputer.

    6. All Apps:

      1. One single page to have all of the available options in a single place.
