Although the Lab’s resources are primarily dedicated to automated build and test jobs, they are also available for interactive debugging when necessary. In order to log in to a specific Metronome node from the public network, you must first ssh into the nmi-net.cs.wisc.edu bastion host using your existing NMI account.

We do not have the resources to dedicate hardare to interactive use, however, so while you should feel free to log in to individual nodes when necessary, we ask that you not use them for regular interactive development work.

If you need to perform builds, tests, or other work which consume significant system resources and may interfere with Metronome jobs running in the background, please contact us first so we can provide you with dedicated access to the necessary resources for a limited period of time.
