This application will allow a user to submit a job on the Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC) Lonestar6 supercomputer to visualize and analyze molecular structures utilizing the University of California San Francisco (UCSF) ChimeraX program.
To run the application, the user must submit a job using the University of Texas Research Cyberinfrastructure (UTRC) system. Once running, a virtual DCV session will be initialized for the user, and a button on the History/Jobs page will appear allowing the user to open the session. Additionally, a document titled 'ChimeraX_dcvserver.txt' will be created in the user's work folder with connection instructions. Once connected, the ChimeraX software will begin running, and a Tapis jobs archive folder will be created on the desktop for the user's convenience.
