Using Stata - UCL/ECON-CLUSTER GitHub Wiki

To use Stata, follow the following steps:

  1. Logon to the CS department server farm using ThinLinc.

  2. Open up a terminal window within the ThinLinc window.

  3. Logon to the server jake:

     ssh -X jake
    
    • jake is a server on the cluster
    • The option "-X" ensures that x forwarding is enabled. This is needed for graphics.
    • username and password for jake are for the CS cluster. These may be different from those for server farm.
  4. Make sure Stata module is loaded.

  5. Start Stata
