Your IDAS session will be automatically terminated if it has been idle for 18 hours with no activities. IDAS was originally designed for interactive work, so “activities” include logging into IDAS, clicking on the IDAS tab, and interacting with the IDAS interface in some way, such as uploading, downloading, and managing your files. Having code running doesn’t count as an interactive activity. If a user hasn’t logged into IDAS for 18 hours, their session will be automatically stopped to release resources for other users. |
Restarting your IDAS session
When to restart your IDAS session?
You might want to restart your IDAS session in one of the following scenarios:
You want to change the CPU cores, RAM, or GPU available for your IDAS session.
You want to connect to your Argon home directory or LSS shares.
You want to change to a different IDAS image, such as from Python to R or vice versa.
You are working with our team to troubleshoot an issue, and we have recommended that you restart your IDAS session.
You are finished with your tasks on IDAS. In this case, shutting down your IDAS session will release resources to other users. This is especially helpful if your session was using a GPU, since GPUs on IDAS are limited and available on a first come first served basis.
Steps to restart your IDAS session
1. Save any changes to the scripts, datasets, or files that you want to save.
2. In your web browser, navigate to https://idas.uiowa.edu/research/hub/home
3. Click the red button Stop My Server.
4. Wait a few seconds for the blue button to change to Start My Server.
5. Click Start My Server to log in to IDAS again if you want to continue using IDAS. Otherwise, if you are done with IDAS, close your browser tab.
