Accessing the Lab Machines
There are two types of lab machines available: those managed internally by BWI, and those manged by CS Help.
- BWI-managed lab machines are desktop and laptop computers located in AHG, on BWI robots, and in the GDC 3rd Floor suites.
- CS-managed machines are servers located in a CS managed server room. These machines are owned by LARG.
| Management Group | Administrators | Users |
|---|---|---|
| BWI | Nikunj Parmar, Corrie Van Sice, Justin Hart | BWI, LARG, LWR, FRI |
| CS | [email protected] | LARG |
Contact the administrators listed above to gain access to a machine group. Copy your advisor on the message to verify your lab affiliation for BWI-managed machines.
-
The Lab Machines are not to be rebooted or shutdown except by admins. An encryption password is required to boot the machines. This password must be entered in-person. If a machine is shut down, expect delays.

Don't make global changes to packages. Changes to common packages such as
opencv,cuda,device drivers,python, etc affect all users. If you need a particular version of a package, the correct way to do it is to install them for your-user only. This can be done by installing new packages to~/.localand adding them to your$PATHmanually.
We have several 'classes' of Lab Machine. They are all accessible via their domain names on the csres and cs networks.
| BWI-managed Host | Domain name |
|---|---|
| drperceptron | <hostname>.csres.utexas.edu |
| dr-light | <hostname>.csres.utexas.edu |
| commander-sigma | <hostname>.csres.utexas.edu |
| CS-managed Host | Domain name |
|---|---|
| pepi | <hostname>.cs.utexas.edu |
| pogba | <hostname>.cs.utexas.edu |
| pulisic | <hostname>.cs.utexas.edu |
| salah | <hostname>.cs.utexas.edu |
| mckennie | <hostname>.cs.utexas.edu |
| aaronson | <hostname>.cs.utexas.edu |
| debruyne | <hostname>.cs.utexas.edu |
| hazard | <hostname>.cs.utexas.edu |
Access the lab machines remotely via a secure shell or TeamViewer. You will need a username and password - if you do not already have one, please request one from the admin for the management groups above.
You can ssh into any lab machine by using it's public domain name, e.g.
ssh <username>@<hostname>.csres.utexas.edu
SSH access is restricted to those on the UT network or those that have their public keys installed on the host. You will need to get onto a UT network, such as utexas wifi or the UT VPN (either for access, or to initially install your keys). You can read more about this here.
You can also access these machines via TeamViewer. The password is at http://stache.utexas.edu under the entry "BWI Teamviewer." If you do not have this entry in your account, please email/slack a lab admin. The IDs for each machine are listed below:
| Machine Name | ID |
|---|---|
drperceptron |
1 043 218 977 |
commander-sigma |
|
dr-light |
1 056 996 134 |
