| - | ==== Overview ==== | ||
| - | This site provides download and installations instructions for the - [[ https://geodynamics.org/cig/events/calendar/2018-cgu-cig/aspect-tutorial/|CGU 2018 Introduction to Modeling Lithospheric Dynamics Tutorial]]. | ||
| - | |||
| - | The tutorial utilizes the mantle convection and lithospheric deformation code [[https://geodynamics.org/cig/software/aspect/|ASPECT]], which has been precompiled on a virtual machine along with other software. The virtual machine will be run with VirtualBox. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Please note that all of the required software and files should be downloaded and installed ***BEFORE*** the tutorial. | ||
| - | |||
| - | If you have any questions or problems arise with the software installation, please contact John Naliboff (jbnaliboff@ucdavis.edu). | ||
| - | |||
| - | ==== Tutorial Prerequisties ==== | ||
| - | === Virtualbox === | ||
| - | Please download and install virtualbox *BEFORE* the tutorial. You can download it from [[https://www.virtualbox.org/wiki/Downloads|VirtualBox downloads]] | ||
| - | |||
| - | Use [[https://www.virtualbox.org/manual/ch02.html|these directions]] to install VirtualBox. | ||
| - | |||
| - | If your host machine is any linux system, both ''virtualbox'' and ''virtualbox-dkms'' packages must be installed. Also check to make sure you have exFAT filesystem drivers. Windows and Mac systems should have it by default. On Ubuntu, the packages required are ''exfat-utils'' and ''exfat-fuse''. | ||
| - | |||
| - | We recommended that your computer have at least 20 to 30GB of free disk space and preferably 4GB of RAM. | ||
| - | |||
| - | === Tutorial Image === | ||
| - | |||
| - | During registration, you will receive a 16 GB USB drive with an OVA file called "CIG16_Tutorial_VM.ova." We will use virtual box to boot up a ubuntu 14.04 linux OS. | ||
| - | |||
| - | This image contains the following packages: | ||
| - | * ASPECT | ||
| - | * ObsPy | ||
| - | * Rayleigh | ||
| - | * SPECFEM3D | ||
| - | * SW4 | ||
| - | * Underworld | ||
| - | * HC | ||
| - | |||
| - | Download it onto the laptop you are going to use for the tutorial. | ||
| - | |||
| - | === Importing the CIG16 tutorial image === | ||
| - | |||
| - | - Run VirtualBox. | ||
| - | - Select from the menu "Import appliance": {{:software:aspect:screenshot_from_2015-06-19_19_55_07.png?nolink|}} | ||
| - | - Select the downloaded CIG16_tutorialvm.ova: {{:appliances_2_import.png?nolink|}} | ||
| - | - Select Next and Import: {{:CIG_16_download.png?nolink|}} | ||
| - | - Click on start (the green arrow) to launch the image: {{:CIG16-TutorialVM.png?nolink|}} | ||
| - | |||
| - | |||
| - | === Using the Image === | ||
| - | |||
| - | The image contains the following users: | ||
| - | * aspect_user | ||
| - | * obspy_user | ||
| - | * rayleigh_user | ||
| - | * specfem3d_user | ||
| - | * sw4_user | ||
| - | * underworld_user | ||
| - | * hc_user | ||
| - | Note that all of the users listed above are password less. | ||
| - | |||
| - | The super user is cig and the password is cig. | ||
| - | |||
| - | The image does not allow any connections from the network. sudo apt-get install <package name> to install ubuntu packages. | ||
| - | |||
| - | Now simply start the CIG16 virtual machine. | ||
| - | |||
| - | === Troubleshooting === | ||
| - | - If too many users are logged in at once, the next time you switch users, a password prompt is requested. However, since no users have any passwords, one would not be able to switch users at this point. | ||
| - | - At the moment, due to inactivity the system locks. To disable this, go to settings -> brightness and lock -> toggle off the lock and set turn screen if inactive to never. | ||
| - | |||
| - | === Additional Links and Information === | ||
| - | - [[ https://geodynamics.org/cig/static/CIG16_Tutorial_VM.ova|CIG16 Virtual Machine]]: This VM is over 8GB and will take a long time to download. | ||
| - | - [[ https://geodynamics.org/cig/static/CIDER16_TutorialVM.ova|CIDER Virtual Machine]]: Contains only HC, Underworld, Burnman software packages, as well as software for seismic inversion and plotting. | ||
| - | - [[ https://geosys.usc.edu/projects/seatree/wiki|SEATREE]]: Software package that provides GUI access to multiple solid earth computational tools. | ||
