getting accounts

This section walks new users through a step-by-step process of setting up their accounts on the high performance computers at the NAS Facility. You'll find all required forms online, plus contact information for getting help along the way.

Important Dates

The new operational period (NOP) for FY04 will begin on November 4, 2003. Everyone (both users and staff) requesting a new or renewed account must submit a completed Account Request Form and return it to the NAS User Interface Coordinator by November 1, 2003. After faxing the forms, send e-mail to nop@nas.nasa.gov with a summary of what has been faxed. This will help the User Interface Coordinator track submissions and verify possible errors.

Your principal investigator will supply the title of the group you are requesting access to, and the Group Identification Number (GID). Then, choose a procedure based on your user category, below.

If you're a scientist in the U.S. interested in getting access to our systems, see Using Our Systems for more information.
