RStudio: login

First connect to the RStudio Web page (you may need to provide your platform credentials), then click on RStudio server.

Step 1: Book your CPU and memory

You should then have the following page:

RStudio startup page

The meaning of the input is:

  • Version: this is the R version. Please note that this is the 4.2.2 version. For the moment, only this version can be used.
  • Node type: there is only one possible type.
  • Wall time: this is the maximum time (in hours) of your RStudio session. You will be disconnected when this time is over.
  • Cores: this is the number of booked cores. You may be tempted to use many. However, please keep in mind that there is only one node, which is shared by all the users. Please only book the CPU you will be using.
  • Memory: this is the booked RAM. As previously, book the resources sparingly.

Click on "Launch" when you are done.

Step 2: Wait for the resource

You should then have the following page:

RStudio waiting page

This means that the cluster is waiting for the resources to be free.

If you wait for a long time (more than a few minutes), it means that either:

  • the node is full, there are already many users and you will have to wait for the others to finish;
  • or you do not have the rights to access to the services (please then refer the to previous page to request for it).

Step 3: Start RStudio

You should then have the following page:

RStudio starting page

You can now start RStudio by pushing the blue button: "Connect to RStudio Server".

RStudio will open in a new window.
