 Now you need a VNC server to connect to.  This can be either a persistent vncserver running on dedicated VDI nodes which are part of [[Graham]], or a temporary vncserver you start on a cluster compute node.  VNC is not a heavyweight server, so you can certainly run lightweight sessions on cluster login nodes.

-Graham has two dedicated VDI nodes collectively known as gra-vdi.  These nodes provide a remote desktop environment equipped with accelerated OpenGL.  They are intended for the most demanding and complex interactive graphical tasks.  The VDI nodes share Graham's <code>/home, /project,</code> and <code>/scratch</code> filesystems.  As a result, any data files or directories created on graham by running jobs in the queue will immediately be accessible on gra-vdi for visualization and post-processing purposes without the need to transfer them over.
