Setting up the environment

You are currently logged on as wksX user on one of the Solaris machines isdcsf2..isdcsf5
These machines are meant for all your work, except for the OSA tasks. If you want to run e.g. ibis_science_analysis, make ssh to one of the   more fast  isdclin1..isdclin5 Linux machines.

Normally you have to store the data and results of data analysis in the scratch subdirectory of you home directory:

cd scratch

In the scratch directory create a directory where the data analysis will be done

mkdir data_rep
cd data_rep

and link the science window data, reference catalog and instrument characteristics from the ISDC server (at present, you do not need to download the data, but when you'll return to you home institution, you'll have to)

ln -s /isdc/arc/rev_2/cat

ln -s $ISDC_IC_TREE/ic
ln -s /isdc/arc/rev_2/scw
ln -s /isdc/arc/rev_2/aux
ln -s $ISDC_IC_TREE/idx


The OSA scripts should know the name of the directory where to look for Science Window and auxiliary data. This name is specified by the REP_BASE_PROD environement:

setenv REP_BASE_PROD $PWD

Finally, it is always good to have the log of analysis run to be written into a file, so that in case of problems you can look through the log and see what was wrong

setenv COMMONLOGFILE +log

Now you can start the exercises proposed for the hands-on session.
