Computers, as an essential support tool, are equipped with the necessary software for the different subjects taught.
To this end, there are 8 laboratories, equipped with a total of 133 workstations, installed with Windows and / or Linux operating system, distributed as follows:
| **Initials** | **Laboratory** | **Nº of computers**
|
|---|
| LAI 1 | Laboratório de Apoio Informático 1 | 20 |

A Data Processing Center, or Datacenter, is where an organization's data processing and storage equipment is concentrated.
They are usually designed to be secure and house servers and databases and file storage, processing large amounts of information.
In 2008, DEEC invested in the creation of a new Datacenter to improve the operating conditions of its information systems.
The Datacenter was designed from the ground up, consisting of several technical components:
- Power (including redundant power systems)
- Climatization
- Connectivity (Network)
- Servers
- Storage Systems
All of these components are mounted in a room protected against unauthorized access, with electrical and data cable routing mechanisms, metal enclosures (racks) where equipment is mounted and a fully controlled environment.
The climate control system is composed of a double redundant precision air conditioning system with constant monitoring, keeping the temperature constant and cooling the equipment. It has fault control and switching systems to extend their life, as well as to avoid problems in the event of individual component failure.
The power supply, in addition to operator power, uses large, rack-mounted uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) to keep equipment powered on even in the event of a power failure. Active equipment (servers, switches, etc.) is also purchased from redundant sources to guarantee alternative power supply paths in the event of individual component failure.
The Datacenter currently has the following approximate specifications: - 27 power supply circuits, totaling a maximum of 100A;
- 8 UPS with total capacity exceeding 20,000VA;
- 2 air conditioning systems with a total of 40,000 BTU;
- 8 switches, providing a total of 216 ports, with individual speeds of 1Gbps and 10Gbps in copper and fiber optic technology;
- Connection to 8 existing floor racks in the fiber optic building, with reductive paths;
- External fiber optic connection with a cumulative total of 10Gbps bandwidth;
- 55 physical servers;
- 43 virtual servers running on 4 hypervisors over SSD shared storage;
- More than 150 CPU cores and 1TB more RAM distributed across different servers;
- Total gross storage capacity greater than 24 TB on 2 storage systems;

# Network Time Protocol (NTP)
The NTP service is intended to synchronize the time between the various network devices. The Computer Network Management (GRI) office maintains a time reference (ntp.deec.uc.pt), synchronized with the central time servers of the University of Coimbra and other higher level references. The devices you want can sync with this local reference to keep your watch constantly updated and in sync.
To access the service, users must configure the device's NTP client by pointing to the ntp.deec.uc.pt (or 193.136.205.254) server.
# Equipment Housing
Housing & Colocation service is available at the DEEC / ISR / IT Common Datacenter. This service is the colocation of the server or other computer equipment with network access.
Since the server is provided by the client, it will also be configured, administered and maintained (hardware) by the same. This way, its owner can install the software he wants as well as configure it carefully.
The space dedicated to this service has redundant connections to the network core and UPS connection and is physically limited, so new orders need to be checked for availability.
### Benefits and Features
- Energy - UPS access, ensuring greater electrical safety and equipment stability
- Temperature Control - HVAC (Temperature and Humidity Control) system provides constant temperature and relative humidity control
- Network core connection - Direct network core connection for increased stability, superior access speed and low latency between applications and users

You can access this system through the address (URL):
[https://my.deec.uc.pt](https://my.deec.uc.pt/)
The login on the system is the e-mail address and the password is the one used on the respective e-mail account.
# Personal Page Hosting Service
DEEC provides its employees with a service for the publication of personal web pages, for their enjoyment. This service is available through the URL [http://home.deec.uc.pt/~username](http://home.deec.uc.pt/~username).
The materials hosted through this service are the responsibility of each user and reflect their individual vision. The information published does not represent the opinion or policy of the Department, Faculty or University of Coimbra. Thus, the institution should not be associated with the users' view, expressed in the pages hosted on this service.
#### Personal Website Management
The access to the server, for editing the pages, is done through the FTP TLS / SSL protocol and your DEEC credentials.
The table below shows the settings that you should use in your usual TLS / SSL FTP client (we suggest [Cyberduck](https://cyberduck.io/ "https://cyberduck.io/") for OSX and Windows). Click [here ](https://helpdesk.deec.uc.pt/help/en-us/11-information-systems/22-connection-to-web-and-home-servers-via-ftp-tls-ssl "https://helpdesk.deec.uc.pt/help/en-us/11-information-systems/22-connection-to-web-and-home-servers-via-ftp-tls-ssl")for more complete instructions.
| **Definition** | **Description** | **Value to be configured** |
|---|
| Server | Address of the server hosting the home.deec.uc.pt | home.deec.uc.pt |
Protocol | Protocol for interaction with the server, for manipulating remote | FTP TLS/SSL Explicit encryption |
| Username | Username of the user to be connected to the server | DEEC domain username (e.g., userx)
|
| Password | Password of the user to be connected to the server | Password of the respective account |
| Path
| Path in the file system, where the site is hosted | /home/*<username>*/public\_html |
The website must be contained in a folder, named public_html, within your account. If it is not yet created, you must proceed with its creation.
In addition, you must ensure that the folder and all files contained have the correct permissions (755 - u = rwx, g = rx, o = rx), using the command below, using the SFTP client:
```
chmod -R 755 /home//public_html
```
####
#### Previous Systems
Forwarders of previously published URLs have been created to ensure their smooth operation. Thus [http://www.deec.uc.pt/~username](http://www.deec.uc.pt/~username) and [http://www2.deec.uc.pt/~username](http://www2.deec.uc.pt/~username), automatically point to [http://home.deec.uc.pt/~username](http://home.deec.uc.pt/~username).
The sites were automatically copied from the old server (THOR). If for some reason you were using the ISO-8859-1 encoding and your page contains unformatted characters, you can create an .htaccess file, with the following content, / home / <username> / public_html, to solve the problem:
To use this service you need a @deec.uc.pt or @student.uc.pt account

# MIPS Server
To use this service you need a @deec.uc.pt or @student.uc.pt account!
The DEEC has a server based on the MIPS architecture that run an appropriate LINUX distribution.
To connect to the server and transfer files you need to use “ssh” (secure shell) and “sftp”, respectively. If you are a Linux / Mac user, to connect to the server, run the command:
**$ ssh ‘uc20YYXXXYYY@student.uc.pt’@mips.deec.uc.pt**
and you will have access to the MIPS machine, whether inside or outside the DEEC LAN. You must use the credentials associated with the University's account (Inforestudante). According to the Computer Network Office, the first time you try to enter the server it will fail and the account will be created. You should cancel the operation (CTRL + C), try again and you will be able to access the server.
If you are a Windows user, you must install free “ssh” and “sftp” clients. A suggestion is to use MobaXterm ([https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/)](https://mobaxterm.mobatek.net/)) which allows you to have both clients in one program. These clients do exactly the same as the Linux / Mac commands mentioned above, but using a windowed interface.
After installing and running MobaXterm, to connect to the server you must do the following steps:
1. Press the Session button in the upper left corner
[](https://kb.deec.uc.pt/uploads/images/gallery/2023-02/image-1676559732295.png)
2. A new window should be opened with the title Session Settings that suggests choosing the type of session you want. You should press SSH
[](https://kb.deec.uc.pt/uploads/images/gallery/2023-02/image-1676559755873.png)
3. Fill in the empty fields with the following data:
[](https://kb.deec.uc.pt/uploads/images/gallery/2023-02/image-1676559764347.png)
Remote Host must be mips.deec.uc.pt, select Specify username and fill in the credentials associated with the University account (Inforestudante) uc20YYXXXYYY@student.uc.pt. Clicking Ok will open a command on the console to enter the password associated with your account. If you filled in your data well, an option to save credentials will appear, allowing you to avoid having to enter a password for future access.
**Notes:**
\- Only save your credentials if you are working on your personal computer.
**- According to the Computer Network Office, the first time you try to enter the server it will fail and the account will be created. You should cancel the operation (CTRL + C), try again and you will be able to access the server.**
4. If you have logged in correctly, you will now have access to the ssh client (console) and sftp (file explorer on the left). To send files to the server just drag them to the sftp client zone. You can also create new files by right clicking on the sftp client area and selecting New empty file.
# Software
# Microsoft Imagine
To use this service, you need to own a @deec.uc.pt account!
Microsoft Imagine is a protocol that Microsoft signs with the Departments of Universities that teach disciplines in the STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) areas that gives FREE access to its students, teachers and employees of the Department to Microsoft tools.
The protocol can be used through a Web based platform. In this way, it is possible for the community to obtain a personal copy of all available software, with a personal account for each user. The software delivery process is automated, freeing those responsible / administrators to essentially manage the painful process of assigning the unique Keys to which each user is entitled to obtain their personal copy of the software. On the part of users, access to the software becomes available uninterruptedly, at any time and in any place, as long as they are registered in the system. The fact that each student has their own personal account gives them full access to “their” software, being able to access their Product Keys at any time or order new software products.
#### Who has access?
- DEEC students, who attend courses in the current academic year;
- Teachers;
- Contributors;
#### Microsoft Imagine Accounts
Access to Microsoft Imagine is dependent on the creation of accounts by the management of the DEEC Computer Network (GRI).
For this purpose, the GRI creates the accounts as follows:
- For students, at the beginning of each academic year;
- For teachers and collaborators, when creating the departmental account;
At that moment, each user receives an email, in the institutional email account, automated by the platform, with the initial access instructions to the platform.
Accounts on the Dreamspark platform are independent of departmental accounts, with no connection to DEEC's centralized authentication services. For this reason, they may have a different password.
#### Platform Access
The username is the institutional email address.
The password is, as already mentioned, generated by Microsoft, and is automatically sent in the initial email.
If you have lost or do not know your password, you can recover it on the Microsoft Imagine authentication page (“Sign In”), using the following options:
“Forgot you password?” - This option sends the user a new password.
The address (URL) for accessing the platform is:
[http://web.deec.uc.pt/go/dreamspark](http://web.deec.uc.pt/go/dreamspark)
#### Rules of Use
- The available software can be used in academic projects, classes, research, group work or departmental projects of the faculty;
- Students covered by the protocol will be able to install the software on their personal machines, as long as they are only for their own use and only for academic purposes;
- The use of tools obtained by students under the protocol is authorized, even after leaving or finishing the course, only for academic or research purposes;
- The installation of Microsoft Windows or other operating systems made available, can only be carried out on PCs without a pre-installed system (OEM) for academic purposes and for the student's own use, and the operating system cannot be transferred in case of computer transfer. ;
- The student can save A SINGLE copy of the software provided, when it is provided in the * .ISO format;
#### Incorret Use
- The use of the tools available for the development of products that are not of academic and / or research scope;
