EOVSA Data Analysis Tutorial
Software
Here are some basic information on CASA and the software we are developing:
- SunCASA A wrapper around CASA for imaging and visualizing spectral imaging data of the Sun. ONLY AVAILABLE on UNIX-BASED PLATFORMS (MacOS High-Sierra and later, REDHAT 6 & 7 and equivalents)
- GSFIT
- Obtaining CASA; CASA Guides
Setup SunCASA
Setup connections to AWS server
This is Bin's personal Amazon AWS Lightsail server for testing purposes. The server has 1 CPU, 512 MB RAM, and 20 GB SSD storage. It runs CentOS 7 (1901-01) Linux.
!!!NOTE: THIS SERVER IS ONLY INTENDED FOR THE EOVSA TUTORIAL, BUT *NOT* FOR CARRYING OUT ACTUAL DATA REDUCTION!!!
- Obtain SSH Key from Bin Chen
- Put it under a secure location on your own machine.
- Follow remaining directions depending on your client machine.
Linux / Mac
Recommend to use "~/.ssh" (create if it does not exist by "mkdir ~/.ssh").
- Edit the permission of ~/.ssh and the key (here I use ~/.ssh as the directory to place your key)
chmod -R 700 ~/.ssh chmod 400 ~/.ssh/guest_key.pem
- Log on to test AWS server (password-less)
ssh -XY -i ~/.ssh/guest_key.pem guest@3.208.184.162
Enter SunCASA
[guest@ip-172-26-0-162 ~]$ suncasa
Windows (MobaXterm)
Recommend to use "Documents\MobaXterm\home\.ssh"
- Create new session, click SSH, enter 3.208.184.162 for Remote host, guest for username.
- On advanced SSH settings tab, click Use private key, navigate to and select file guest_key.pem
- Close setup window and click the new sessions icon, which will log you in.
Enter SunCASA
[guest@ip-172-26-0-162 ~]$ suncasa
Setup SunCASA on your own machine
MacOS Mojave
If you do not have Java SE Development Kit 12 installed on your Mac, please download the [installer:https://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jdk12-downloads-5295953.html] and install it before SunCASA installation.
