RI Support
Please note that the Research Infrastructure Team members are working in a hybrid manner, a mixture of time in the office and at home. If you need help using CSF, iCSF, RDS, condor and related services please email its-ri-team@manchester.ac.uk – someone will be on duty as usual Monday-Friday during normal work hours and will log a ticket via which to provide assistance.
