DRAMSIOC Setup

DRAMSIOC is a general use VM that has been set up for use by the DraMS GSW team. We will be using DRAMSIOC to host the Subversion (SVN) repository containing the telemetry files captured in the lab. Because the GSE workstations are behind the Secure Lab Enclave (SLE), some steps are required to set up access from the lab.

DRAMSIOC can only be reached by setting up an SSH tunnel. This requires your NASA badge and a computer with a badge reader.

  1. From outside the lab, set up an SSH tunnel to DRAMSIOC. VM SSH Tunnel Setup

  2. From inside the lab (behind the SLE), make sure that you can SSH to DRAMSIOC.

     ssh dramsioc.gsfc.nasa.gov
    

    If you can't resolve this address or you get any other SSH errors, you may need to request that the SLE open port 22 to dramsioc.gsfc.nasa.gov

  3. Create an RSA public/private key

  4. Copy your public key to DRAMSIOC

  5. Create an SSH config file in C:/Users/dramsops/.ssh/ named "config". Replace YOUR_USERNAME below with your NASA username (e.g., mrburkh1)

     Host dramsioc
            Hostname dramsioc.gsfc.nasa.gov
            PubKeyAuthentication yes
            User YOUR_USERNAME
            LocalForward 6994 localhost:3690
            TCPKeepAlive yes
    
  6. Open the SSH: In a Command Prompt type ssh dramsioc

  7. Checkout (or Update) the "dramsdata" SVN repository. Using TortoiseSVN, right click on a location in the Windows Explorer and select "SVN Checkout". For the "URL of repository" put "svn://localhost:6994/dramsdata".
