Requesting an Account

Check with your Supervisor or Project Investigator (PI) that they are a contributor and then fill in the HPC Help form requesting an account on the iCSF (aka Incline). Please provide the following information:

• The name of the system you wish to access – in this case “CSF3”
• A brief description of why you want to use CSF3
• Your University IT Username (not password)
• The email address of your PI/supervisor/line manager (if your work spans multiple departments with more than one supervisor, please include them all.)
• The unix group/code for your contribution group (if known – if your PI is a contributor they will know it)

We do not usually need to contact your supervisor, but it helps us to identify which area of storage and resources on the CSF your account will have access to.

Visitors/Collaborators, account extensions, your account at the end of a course/contract.

Please see the information on the CSF3 accounts pageas this is all applicable for iCSF too.
