== How to start an Areca Array Verification pass from the HTTP interface. ==

=== SSH Tunnel w/ port forward mapping ===
The Areca HTTP daemon listens on TCP port 81.  This port is inaccessible from outside of the production environment.
In order to gain access to the daemon, a port from your local system will need to be forwarded through an SSH tunnel to the production cluster.

This [attachment:mhpcc_ssh.sh] script forwards a unique port to port tcp/81 on each node at MHPCC.  The localport/remote host mapping is:

{{{

http://localhost:8004 -> ipp004
http://localhost:8005 -> ipp005
http://localhost:8006 -> ipp006
...
}}}

Then open your browser to [http://localhost:80XX].  Under FireFox, you can bookmark all of the nodes in a single folder then have FireFox open all entries in that folder as separate tabs.

You should see a page noting that the check has been started.

=== SSH Tunnel no port forwarding ===

Use the standard ipp0XX node URL
