Please bring your laptop! For the Pythia tutorials: * Tutorials based on docker images. Suggest to install docker in advance: https://docs.docker.com/install * to avoid having to download the docker image all at the same time it would be a good idea to download the image in advance with: "docker pull hepstore/rivet-pythia" (where on Linux people will most likely need a "sudo" in front for this to work) For the Sherpa tutorials: * Tutorials based on docker images. Suggest to install docker in advance: https://docs.docker.com/install * to avoid having to download the docker image all at the same time it would be a good idea to download the image in advance with: docker pull hepstore/rivet-sherpa:3.1.8 docker container run -it -v $PWD:$PWD -w $PWD hepstore/rivet-sherpa:3.1.8 /bin/bash Sherpa --version * If you'd like to work with a local Sherpa installation instead of docker, it is useful to install rivet suit from rivet-bootstrap in advance: https://gitlab.com/hepcedar/rivet/-/blob/release-3-1-x/doc/tutorials/installation.md#installation-1 For the Herwig tutorials: * Tutorials based on docker images. Suggest to install docker in advance: https://docs.docker.com/install * to avoid having to download the docker image all at the same time it would be a good idea to download the image in advance with: "docker pull herwigcollaboration/herwig-7.3:7.3.0" (where on Linux people will most likely need a "sudo" in front for this to work) If you need any additional support (via DESY computing access), contact us. As fallback solution via ssh from laptop, we offer National Analysis Facility (NAF) guest accounts. Ask Andreas Hinzmann for account and password details. With this account you can use worker nodes with an installation at DESY via: ssh school??@naf-school.desy.de
