ANL Supplement to the UNICOS Primer

The ANL Supplement to the UNICOS Primer (ANL/TM 460) introduces the Cray X-MP interactive and batch services available at Argonne National Laboratory. It serves as a companion to the UNICOS Primer (Cray publication SG-2010 6.0). Whereas the UNICOS Primer discusses standard Unix issues of Cray computing, this manual discusses those issues specific to Cray computing at ANL. If this is your first experience on a Unix-based system, we assume that you have read at least Chapters 1 through 3 of the UNICOS Primer. The Glossary at the back of the UNICOS Primer will also be useful to you. If you are already familiar with a Unix system, it should suffice to keep the UNICOS Primer handy as you use this document. To learn about Unix programming in greater detail, we recommend A Practical Guide to the Unix System, by Mark G. Sobell. This manual and all other sources referred to in this document are available for purchase at the Document Distribution Counter in Building 221, Room A-134. We assume that you have already read the Guide to Computing at ANL (ANL/TM 336) to get an overview of all the computing facilities and services available at Argonne National Laboratory. You should also refer to Recommended Documentation for Computer Users at ANL (ANL/TM 379) for additional guidance in selecting available documentation that will best fill your particular computing needs..
