Analysis AWS

For Workshop members without access to computing resources - Preconfigured Amazon Web Services servers can be used

Accessing compute resources on AWS:

Speak with Jeff Stout to get the current IP address and PEM key

 chmod 400 workshop.pem

${PATH} is the path to the PEM key provided to you

 ssh -X -i ${PATH}/workshop.pem LOGIN_ID@IP_ADDRESS_PROVIDED

Windows Laptops do not have X11 installed natively. Download an Xterm software for visualization.
MobaXterm has been tested to work: https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/download.html

Jupyter Notebook Over a Remote Connection

1) Run one terminal to start the notebook and forward the outputs to local web browser:

 ssh -i AWS.pem -L 8887:localhost:8887  ubuntu@IP_ADDRESS
 conda activate workshop  
 jupyter notebook --no-browser --port=8887

2) Copy the output of the jupyter notebook command (see example below) and enter into your laptop web browser (Firefox, Chrome, etc.). Do not click on the link - it will try to launch on the AWS computer

3) Use the jupyter notebook to analyze MEG data with python tools
