It is best not to ssh into the cluster while you are on the login node of the cluster.
I compiled a program locally in my account and I would like to add the location of the executables to my PATH, how do I do this?
Suppose your software directory is located in you home directory and your username is jdoe02. Your software directory is flight_program/ and there is a bin subdirectory located within containing executables.
$PATH is a global environmental variable defined for the cluster for general access to important locations. You may add to it by pre-pending the path you wish to be searched.
PATH=/cluster/home/j/d/jdoe02/flight_program/bin:$PATH export PATH |
