| 32 | If ou haven't already performed this step in A.1, you first have to configure the your local iRODS environment: |
| 33 | |
| 34 | * The iRODS client uses a configuration file (~/.irods/.irodsEnv) that sets certain parameter for the icommands. Here is and example: |
| 35 | {{{ |
| 36 | # iRODS personal configuration file. |
| 37 | # |
| 38 | # This file was automatically created during iRODS installation. |
| 39 | # Created Thu Feb 16 14:06:27 2012 |
| 40 | # |
| 41 | # iRODS server host name: |
| 42 | irodsHost 'emmy9.casa.umass.edu' |
| 43 | # iRODS server port number: |
| 44 | irodsPort 1247 |
| 45 | |
| 46 | # Default storage resource name: |
| 47 | irodsDefResource 'iRODSUmass' |
| 48 | # Home directory in iRODS: |
| 49 | irodsHome '/geniRenci/home/gimiXX' |
| 50 | # Current directory in iRODS: |
| 51 | irodsCwd '/geniRenci/home/gimiXX' |
| 52 | # Account name: |
| 53 | irodsUserName 'gimiXX' |
| 54 | # Zone: |
| 55 | irodsZone 'geniRenci' |
| 56 | }}} |
| 57 | |
| 58 | * First of all copy the template iRODS configuration file to .irodsEnv with the following command: |
| 59 | {{{ |
| 60 | $ cp ~/Tutorials/GIMI/gimiXX/gimiIrodsEnv ~/.irods/.irodsEnv |
| 61 | }}} |
| 62 | * Open ~/.irods/.irodsEnv with your favorite text editor (we recommend ''nano'') and change gimiXX to your assigned username (e.g., gimi04). |
| 63 | * Register with iRODS server by issuing the following command (more details on iRODS will be given shortly): |
| 64 | {{{ |
| 65 | $ iinit |
| 66 | }}} |
| 67 | |
| 68 | * You will be prompted for a password. Please type in the password you were provided with on the paper handout!! |
