Any qualified Canadian researcher may apply for a SciNet account at any time after having successfully registered with the Compute Canada Database. In general, a faculty member applies. Accounts have default limits but those users with especially large resource requirements may apply to the Local or National Resource Allocation Committees for larger allocations.
- faculty member (PI) registers with the Compute Canada Database
- faculty member (PI) applies for a default SciNet account for his/her research program
Graduate students, postdoctoral fellows and other research staff follow the faculty member, who must approve the requests by his/her students and postdocs.
After the user obtains his/her CCRI (Compute Canada Role Identifier) the user may request an account with SciNet. This is usually done directly from the CCDB site. If the user already has a local SciNet account then all that is required is to "link" the CCRI to the existing account.
The user will be notified, by e-mail, when the account has been set up, and will be instructed to contact SciNet staff for further details.
