Job SSH access

To be able to utilize SSH tunnel connection between the local workstation and Rescale cluster, you need to create SSH key pair and copy the public key to your Rescale profile. The public and private SSH keys should be considered a personal secret, which should not be shared with others. There is never a need to provide the private key outside the local environment.

The key generation is automated and easy to do by following these seven steps:

1. Create key pair by clicking the Create SSH keys button.
2. Copy text from local public key file %userprofile%\.edrm_ccr_fluent\ssh\fl_cc.pub. The text is automatically copied by clicking the Copy Public key to clipboard button.
3. In Rescale Web Page go to User Profile Settings → Job Settings or open the rescale Rescale job settings page by clicking Open Web Page ‘Job Settings’ button.
4. Paste copied text to the SSH Public Key box on the Rescale web page.
5. Change the CIDR rule to My Current IP in the Rescale web page.
6. Save the Rescale job settings.
7. Press Validate SSH accessibility to check that everything is correct.
