RStudio Server Pro on SLURM

  • Address: https://mcrs.svi.edu.au

  • For this to work you must have a current Kerberos ticket on the SLURM cluster. A Kerberos ticket is created automatically when you login via ssh to the slurm login node.

RStudio Server Pro uses a feature called launcher to run on SLURM. There is some info on it at https://rstudio.com/resources/rstudioconf-2019/rstudio-job-launcher-changing-where-we-run-r-stuff/ The video uses a Kubernetes cluster but you will get the idea.

Notes

When testing there was a reasonable delay on sessions starting new sessions. I found that if you left the web page it would start eventually. Feel free to try refreshing your browser page or going back to you home area. This may not be th case when the cluster has more resources.
