Setup instructions

Docker

Docker has versions for Mac, Windows, and many flavors of Linux at https://www.docker.com/community-edition#/download

Check if everything is working

Run the following commands:

$ docker run hello-world
$ docker pull ubuntu:14.04
$ docker pull nersc/ubuntu-mpi:14.04

Docker hub account

Register for an account at https://cloud.docker.com/ (take note of your Docker ID and password). With docker installed, run

$ docker login -u <your docker ID>

and enter your password.

SSH access to NERSC

If you're using Linux or macOS, you already have the ssh client installed.

On Windows, install PuTTY

If the Docker installation fails

You can use http://play-with-docker.com/ to try Docker, but it won't work if all of us try it once! So use it only as a last resort, and it is up to you to not use any important information (like the Docker hub account) inside it.
