When a connection is established with any of our systems, it is to a login node. Login nodes are the "front desk" of the system, and they allow users to manage their workflows, edit files, and submit jobs to the scheduler to be executed on the compute nodes. The compute nodes are where the main computations are processed and they can be accessed through the different queues or partitions managed by the scheduler. These concepts are illustrated in figure 1.
