Log into kingbee.mps.ohio-state.edu first, then log into radiorm.physics.ohio-state.edu.
From Keith Stewart 03/16/17: It appears that radiorm SSH from offsite is closed. So you will need to be on an OSU network physically or via VPN. fox is also blocked from offsite as well. Kingbee should still be available for now. If you want to use it as a jump host to get to radiorm without VPN. However, you will want to get comfortable with the VPN before it is a requirement.
Carl 03/16/17: I could log in even while using a hard line and plugged in directly to the network.
From Bryan Dunlap 12/16/17: I have set up the group permissions on the elog directory so you and your other designated people can edit files. I have configured sudo to allow you all to restart the elogd service. Once you have edited the file [/home/elog/elog.cfg I think], you can then type
sudo /sbin/service elogd restart
to restart the daemon so it re-reads the config. Sudo will prompt you for your password before it executes the command. |

From Sam 01/25/17: It doesn't work from my Ubuntu 14 machine. My VPN setup in 14 does not have the "Software Token Authentication" option on the screen as shown in the instructions. It fails on connection attempt.
The instructions specify Ubuntu 16; perhaps there is a way to make it work on 14, but I don't know what it is.

Attached is a set of slides on Getting Started with QC, a simulation monitoring project. It has instructions on getting started in using a terminal window, and downloading, compiling and running AraSim, the simulation program for the ARA project. AraSim has moved from the SVN repository to github, and so now you should be able to retrieve it, compile it using:
git clone https://github.com/ara-software/AraSim.git
cd AraSim
make
./AraSim
It will run without arguments, but the output might be silly. You can follow the instructions for running AraSim that are in the qc_Intro instructions, which will give them not silly results. Those parts are still correct.
You might get some const expr errors if you are using ROOT 6, such as the ones in the first screen grab below. As mentioned in the error messages, you need to change from const expr to not. A few examples are shown in the next screen grab.
If you are here, you likely would also want to know how to install the prerequisites themselves. You might find this entry helpful then: http://radiorm.physics.ohio-state.edu/elog/How-To/4. It is only technically applicable to an older version that is designed for compatibility with ROOT5, but it will give you the idea.
These instructions are also superceded by an updated presentation at http://radiorm.physics.ohio-state.edu/elog/How-To/38

If an undergrad has been working with the group on a volunteer basis, they will need that clarified, so that they have not up to then we working for pay without training. There is a form that they sign saying they have been working as a volunteer.
Below is an email that Pam sent in July 2019 outlining what they need. Other things to remember:
Undergrads receive emails from the department to remind them about orientation and scheduling prior to first day of hire, and other emails from ASC. They receive more information at orientation.
They will need to show ID.
If an undergrad (or any hire) does not waive retirement/OPERs within 30 days, they will have to have this deducted from their paycheck. This is another reason that orientation is important.
For the person hiring them:
1. Tell your admin (Lisa) asap who, when, etc you want to hire. ASAP is important because (Pam) will process over 75 undergraduates hires in the Fall and over 100 in the summer. Each takes 20 days on average (see below)
2. On the first day of employment – ask your new hire if they have completed their orientation with the ASC.

Subject: Undergraduate Fall Hires
Hello all,
Fall is almost upon us and I am working on having positions ready to fill as well as posting on the OSU student job site and Federal Work study job boards. In order to plan my workflow, if you would let me know:
1. Approximately how many undergraduate student assistants you plan to hire and at what rate of pay. Our department’s current average rate of pay is $10.00 - $10.50/hour, however it does depend on the position. Range is $8.55 - $14.00/hour.
2. A brief summary of job duties and responsibilities (i.e. assisting in research for ______)
3. Request for posting OR
4. If you have specific student that has been a non-paid volunteer that you would like to hire, they need to sign a waiver prior to orientation. Please see attached for volunteer waiver.
5. Please indicate if your start date varies from August 20. And it may vary based on multiply factors i.e. signatures, workflow, etc.
6. All terminations for summer ungraduated student workers OR
7. If you are intending to continue employment but require a reduction in hours worked in order to comply with policy Please see attached policy for min/max hours.
I have attempted to answer all the FAQs that I noted in the “summer undergraduate hiring wave” in italics, however please let me know if you have questions. As always, it is ASC policy to not start any employee prior to orientation and it will take a minimum of 10 days from the time the contract is signed by both the student and the supervisor– please encourage your students to sign asap or it lengthens the process significantly.
I will do my best to facilitate this process for you. Students Buck ID# and email is extremely helpful. If you need the hire to start August 20, please send me the information via email by July 31, 2019. If you respond later or request a hire after July 31, I will estimate the hire date at the time of submittal.
Thanks,
Pam |
Some programs on OSC require authorized access to use in the form of a license. The license will be automatically read if it is available whenever you open a program on OSC, provided you have access to the license. In order to have access to a license, you need to fill out the attached form and send it to Amy to forward to OSC. Available programs (at least some of) which require a license can be found here: https://www.osc.edu/resources/available_software/software_list . Replace the name of the program at the top of the form with the desired software. |
