Access and User Regulations

General Scientific/Research Usage

For accessing and using the Lichtenberg cluster as a scientist, the following is necessary:

1) Project – you need a project to account the computing resources on. The application can be found here: Project Application.

Medium and Large projects are scrutinized scientifically (according to the conditions of the steering committee). Small projects will just be checked technically for feasibility.

2) Access – to log in and submit jobs on your project, you also need a user account (according to the user regulations). The application form needs to be filled, signed and its original (in paper form) sent to us.

Your user account (2) can be extended even without valid/running project, for you to have access to your research data even after end of a project (eg. to transfer and back up data from the file systems of the HPC to your own storage).
