Introduction to Command Line

June 17, 2026
1:00 pm - 2:30 pm

RIS is hosting a hands-on training session, Introduction to Command line. Designed to familiarize users with the command line, especially the Linux-based command line, and with navigating the Compute2 Platform via the command line.

💡 What you’ll learn:

  • The Fundamentals: The basic Linux command line commands.
  • Navigating File Systems: How to use the command line to navigate files and data.
  • Submitting Jobs: How to use a Job Scheduler (Slurm) and submit jobs on the Compute2 Platform.

❓ Why attend:

As research evolves, the need for HPC resources increases, and these needs can exceed what is possible through Open OnDemand (OOD). This seminar provides the basics to move beyond.

Prerequisites: This training is for users with little to no knowledge of HPC systems. There are no real prerequisites. If you would like to follow along, you will need a RIS Compute2 account. To get access to Compute2, please get onboarded to RIS.

This training will take place on Zoom; you will automatically receive a calendar invite that includes the Zoom link after registration.

We look forward to seeing you there!
