Getting started: setting up Athena

Introduction

ssh -Y pcgla09

Then open an xterm terminal, since I have configured emacs to have the correct backspace and delete keys in an xterm, but unfortunately not in the typical putty console.

xterm

Create the folder we will work in.

export TEST_AREA=/pcdisk/pcgla09/$USER/TestAreaZH
mkdir $TEST_AREA
cd $TEST_AREA

Now we need to setup Athena. First we need to decide to run on a stable Athena version like

export ATHENA_VERSION=17.0.2
asetup $ATHENA_VERSION,here

To check with Athena version one has, do

echo $AtlasArea
