== Hostname and login information ==
 
In order to access the Xeon Phi test environment, you will need to join the group ‘phi_testers’. You can do this by going to the ‘Groups’ link at the top, ‘Browse Groups to Join’, then click on ‘phi_testers’ and the ‘Join’ button. Once approved you’ll be able to log in to
 
* phitest.rc.usf.edu
* User: netid
* Password: netid password
 
== Environment configuration ==
 
In order to access the Phi in native mode (to run MIC-native executables, directly, not off-load) you’ll need to have your account credentials provisioned on the device. You can do this by running
 
* sudo addmicuser
 
When prompted for a password, please enter your USF NetID password. You should then set up a public/private key pair:
 
<pre style="white-space:pre-wrap; width:75%; border:1px solid lightgrey; background:#000000; color:white;">
$ ssh-keygen -t rsa
... press enter at all prompts
$ cat .ssh/id_rsa.pub &gt;&gt; .ssh/authorized_keys
$ chmod 700 .ssh
$ chmod 600 .ssh/*
$ ssh mic0
$</pre>
This should allow you to connect to the Phi device without a password.
 
== Intel Development Tools ==
 
The latest Intel compilers and libraries can be accessed by running
 
<code>module add compilers/intel/2013_cluster_xe</code>
 
== Intel Phi offload mode. ==
 
Users should source the necessary compilervars script to ensure the environment is configured correctly, otherwise offload mode will fail.
