Users can log in to the MERCED cluster by using the secure shell ssh command. On Linux and macOS, users can use the in-built Terminal application, and on Windows, users can download and use Git Bash. To log in to MERCED, type the following command in your terminal/git-bash window and press the enter key -

ssh <username>@merced.ucmerced.edu

where users replace <username> with their username that was used to create their MERCED account. Enter your MERCED password, note that the password is recorded even though the cursor doesn't move or nothing changes on the password line. Once you successfully log in, you will see the Welcome to MERCED! message.

See Getting Started for more information on the MERCED cluster.
