Hi,

  You can find documentation on the cluster at http://www.units.muohio.edu/uit/research/high-performance-computing/redhawk-cluster - look for the document on connecting to the cluster using No Machine.  Once you connect to the cluster, you can run SAS or Stata there.  

  The document that explains how to connect to the cluster using No Machine includes info on how to start a terminal session.  You will need to start a terminal session to run either SAS or Stata.  From the terminal session, to run SAS, type "module load sas" and press enter/return.  This will make SAS available, to start SAS, type "sas" and press return/enter.  To run Stata, type "module load stata", press return/enter, then type "xstata-mp" and press return/enter.

  If you have any questions about using the cluster our would like to meet to discuss using the cluster, please let me know.

Hello RCS:

I have a question about the cluster. Dr. Williams Even from the department of finance has sponsored me to use cluster. I need to use Statistical Software such as SAS, STATA, SPSS. I can't download these software to my computer before, does that mean I can download them now since I was sponsored by a faculty?

Thank you for help!
