+=== F.1 iRODS Environment Settings ===
+If you haven't already performed this step in A.1, you first have to configure the your local iRODS environment:
+
+* The iRODS client uses a configuration file (~/.irods/.irodsEnv) that sets certain parameter for the icommands. Here is and example:
+{{{
+# iRODS personal configuration file.
+#
+# This file was automatically created during iRODS installation.
+#   Created Thu Feb 16 14:06:27 2012
+#
+# iRODS server host name:
+irodsHost 'emmy9.casa.umass.edu'
+# iRODS server port number:
+irodsPort 1247
+
+# Default storage resource name:
+irodsDefResource 'iRODSUmass2'
+# Home directory in iRODS:
+irodsHome '/geniRenci/home/gimiXX'
+# Current directory in iRODS:
+irodsCwd '/geniRenci/home/gimiXX'
+# Account name:
+irodsUserName 'gimiXX'
+# Zone:
+irodsZone 'geniRenci'
+}}}
+ 
+  * First of all copy the iRODS configuration file to .irodsEnv with the following command (replace gimiXX with your username):
+{{{
+$ cp ~/Tutorials/GIMI/gimiXX/gimiXXIrodsEnv ~/.irods/.irodsEnv
+}}} 
+ * Register with iRODS server by issuing the following command (more details on iRODS will be given shortly):
+{{{
+$ iinit
+}}}
+ 
+ * You will be prompted for a password. Please type in the password you were provided with on the paper handout!!
+

+
+=== F.2 Retrieving Data from iRODS to Local System ===
+In the following we list the steps and commands that will allow you to retrieve data from the iRODS storage to your
+local storage:
+
+  * List content of your home directory
+{{{
+$ ils
+}}}
+  * To change to a different directory use
+{{{
+$ icd
+}}}
+  * Retrieve file from your iRODS home directory into user workspace.
+{{{
+$ iget <file_name>
+}}}
+
+  Assuming you wanted to retrieve a file called gimitesting.sq3 the command would look as follows:
+{{{
+$ iget gimitesting.sq3
+}}}
+  * A complete overview on the iRODS commands can be found [https://www.irods.org/index.php/icommands here].
+
+=== F.3 Searching the Catalogue for Data ===
+{{{
+$ imeta qu -d SliceName like gimi28
+}}}
