HPC Support on ISAAC-NG

Project Accounts and Directories on ISAAC-NG

  1. Request a user account via the ISAAC portal account request form.
  2. A PI may request a project through the ISAAC portal landing page.
    • In the “Projects” section, click on “Click here to request a new project, to be added/removed from an existing project, or to have a project directory created.”
    • Then, choose the appropriate option.
    • Additional researchers can request access to a project via the portal, or the PI can submit the request for all members via the service request process.

For details about access to ISAAC resources, see Requesting an Account.
