What is my VM specs and softwares and how do I use it?

I) Virtual server specs:
RHEL6 64 bit OS.
initially has min 4 CPUs, 8Gb of RAM and
40Gb NFS mount of storage with 7 days local disk snapshot only.
You should use StatNet home directory as your main storage for better backup.
At anytime your project needs to have more CPU/Ram, email help at stat with brief
a explanation of why you need more resources.

Host: v{your_login_name}.stat.ubc.ca

Login/Passwd are the same as your StatNet
After you login, your VM will NOT mount your StatNet Home directory.
This is because we want you to understand how sshfs mounting work.
We created a sshfs script in "/usr/local/bin/statfiles"

II) Software installed:
 Matlab
 Maple
 Atlas
 Sage
 Octave
 Blas
 Lapack
 Numpy
 R statistics
 Spicy
 Xppaut
 Xrpa/Screen for running app nohup remotely.
