The Hello Thread

This seems like as good a place as any to start the posting. Allo *Waves*. My name is Phil and I work IT. I have recently been hit with a big bomb in my world of work. I realized just fixing computers was not enough i needed to pic a specialty. Well, that was a bit hit for me, i never really specialized in anything or computers, except hardware architecture really :-(

ANYWHO, this brings me to why i am here. I have AWLAYS loved *nix, it has always had a special place in my heart. I have just never really had time to learn it on my own at home, or had the money to take my courses, WELL my Boss has recently told me if i have courses i want to take the company will pay for them. I am excited.

SO the reason i am here, aside from general *nix knowledge. I am starting a project for my company, i want to setup, for them, a Unix Firewall server. A friend of mine a while bad, had a dad with a Unix firewall. It was set up on X-mas of 95 and was only powered down once, when his backup ran out of battery during the blackout in 2001. He also never rebooted, it, of sure he took it ofline to aply rules but no power cycles an no rebooting. I was very impressed, and then knew the power of Unix.

Anywho, his computer was setup to take about 1 billion packets, he had intercepted more than twice that. I thought it was funny.

SO that is my big reason, i am always told, when it comes to unix, you do not just Use it, it is best to have a reason why youw ant to use it, when it comes to learning it. SO now i have one, and i am excited.

No need to continue that here though, this is my intro with some background on me, i will start the unix question in a different thread :-)

Pleasure meeting you all, and i hope i am not too annoying asking far too many questions.

CD-HIT-PARA.PL(1)						   User Commands						 CD-HIT-PARA.PL(1)

NAME

       cd-hit-para.pl - divide a big clustering job into pieces to run cd-hit or cd-hit-est jobs

SYNOPSIS

       cd-hit-para.pl options

DESCRIPTION

	      This  script  divide a big clustering job into pieces and submit jobs to remote computers over a network to make it parallel.  After
	      all the jobs finished, the script merge the clustering results as if you just run a single cd-hit or cd-hit-est.

	      You can also use it to divide big jobs on a single computer if your computer does not have enough RAM (with -L option).

   Requirements:
	      1 When run this script over a network, the directory where you

	      run the scripts and the input files must be available on all the remote hosts with identical path.

	      2 If you choose "ssh" to submit jobs, you have to have

	      passwordless ssh to any remote host, see ssh manual to know how to set up passwordless ssh.

	      3 I suggest to use queuing system instead of ssh,

	      I currently support PBS and SGE

	      4 cd-hit cd-hit-2d cd-hit-est cd-hit-est-2d

	      cd-hit-div cd-hit-div.pl must be in same directory where this script is in.

       Options

       -i input filename in fasta format, required

       -o output filename, required

       --P program, "cd-hit" or "cd-hit-est", default "cd-hit"

       --B filename of list of hosts,

	      requred unless -Q or -L option is supplied

       --L number of cpus on local computer, default 0

	      when you are not running it over a cluster, you can use this option to divide a big clustering jobs into small pieces, I suggest you
	      just use "--L 1" unless you have enough RAM for each cpu

       --S Number of segments to split input DB into, default 64

       --Q number of jobs to submit to queue queuing system, default 0

	      by default, the program use ssh mode to submit remote jobs

       --T type of queuing system, "PBS", "SGE" are supported, default PBS

       --R restart file, used after a crash of run

       -h print this help

       More cd-hit/cd-hit-est options can be speicified in command line
