External Collaborator Access

Anunna is an open service available to users and groups outside of the WUR, hence access to external researchers and entities can be facilitated.

Giving a collaborator access

Every Anunna user needs a valid user account associated with one of the groups registered at Anunna. Therefore external users need to be sponsored by an existing group, that means that the sponsoring group accepts to bear the costs accrued by the external user and the external user will gain access to the folders common to the group — see Managing Group Members and Shared Storage.

Alternatively, external users, who want to be their own independent entity and want to pay for their own usage of the HPC, a contract must be signed.

For instructions on how to get the process started — see Account Application Process (the external-user route). As the WUR contact, you will usually need to sponsor the request and name the project.

Required Information

When requesting an account for an external user please include the following details

• First name
• Last Name
• Valid e-mail address
• Sponsoring group
• Expiration date for the account
• Name or username of supervisor

The supervisor will be responsible for the data of the external user once the account expires.
