Today's meeting was a walk-through of how to create Python environment using Anaconda on Grace and how to spawn a remote Python kernel from Jupyter.

As a result, here is an update of the old post. The update is about:

Using remote_ikernel utility instead of rk (the latter is only available on Linux and lacks some options required by Grace)
Using Grace's interactive queue instead of login nodes (which are not for computations!)
Packing all the necessary set-up commands into a bunch of scripts

<div class="alert alert-warning", style="font-size: 120%"> remote_ikernel is still not fully compatible with Windows! Update to follow. </div>

To cut a long story short, the instructions are available in our GitHub repository: grace-python.

You have to download the scripts or git-clone the repo. The README.md will get you started.

Any comments/complaints/suggestions are welcomed.
