The terminal

The terminal gives you a full interactive shell on your HPC cluster, directly in the browser. It is useful for inspecting job output, adjusting run scripts, or any manual work on the cluster that the studio does not automate.

Opening a terminal

From a project or from the HPC Connections page, click Open terminal on the connection you want to use. A terminal panel opens in the studio.

Copying text in and out

Use the browser's normal copy and paste shortcuts. On most systems that is Ctrl+C / Ctrl+V (Cmd on macOS). Note that Ctrl+C inside the terminal sends an interrupt signal to the running process, as expected.

Session limits

The terminal session stays open while the browser tab is active. If the tab is backgrounded for a long time, the connection may time out and need to be reopened.
