These accounts are normally opened within one business day, but the timing is dependent on when approval is received from the group approver.

For continued use of the cluster, all new users are required to attend the ACCRE Cluster Computing Classes within the first two months of opening their accounts. These classes cover introductory topics on the use of the cluster. See the training pages to review the requirements. A reminder of this is included in the introductory e-mail which is automatically sent to you when we create your account. However, if classes are currently in session you do not have to wait for your account to be opened to attend.

ACCRE-forum Mailing List
ACCRE staff will post updates on any issues that have significant impact on cluster usage to ACCRE-forum mailing list. Any subscribed member can post, and we encourage users to exchange information and ideas with each other as well as with ACCRE staff. We hope discussions will include general computing issues, such as code development, as well as cluster-specific topics, such as scripts users have written to more efficiently submit jobs.
