Linux Server List
Linux Server List for Classes and General Purposes
Students who need access to the ECE Linux servers should ask their course instructor or TA to email [email protected] to request an account before attempting to log in.
Software Compatibility
Cadence software with a base release date of 2024 or later requires RHEL 8 or RHEL 9. For example, Virtuoso Studio (IC231) requires RHEL 8/9. Some older Cadence software currently installed under /app6, such as IC618, may not run on RHEL 8/9.
Synopsys tools released after fall 2024 also require RHEL 8 or later.
Usage Guidelines
Please run applications and store large output files under your ~/scratch directory whenever possible.
Files stored under ~/scratch:
- Do not count against your home-directory quota.
- Are not backed up.
Please do not store very large files (50 GB or larger) in your home directory. The ECE IT team reserves the right to remove unusually large files from home directories when they should have been stored in ~/scratch.
To ensure that resources remain available to everyone, please do not run more than three jobs at a time, especially CPU- or memory-intensive jobs.
If you encounter application errors, such as "error while loading shared libraries…", please report them to [email protected].

Legacy ECE Linux Servers: RHEL 7
Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) 7 reached the end of maintenance on June 30, 2024. The following RHEL 7 servers remain available to support certain legacy software that is not compatible with RHEL 8.
We plan to retire these servers after our current Red Hat Enterprise Linux Extended Life Cycle Support (ELS) Add-on coverage ends. Please plan to transition your work to RHEL 8 or RHEL 9 whenever possible.
