Main Page
Anunna is a High Performance Computer (HPC) infrastructure hosted by Wageningen University & Research Centre. It is open for use for all WUR research groups as well as other organizations, including companies, that have collaborative projects with WUR.
Using Anunna
Gaining access to Anunna
Access to the cluster and file transfer are traditionally done via SSH and SFTP.
- Logging into cluster using ssh
- File transfer options
- Alternative access methods, and extra features and services on Anunna
- Data storage methods on Anunna
Access Policy
Access needs to be granted actively (by creation of an account on the cluster by FB-IT). Use of resources is limited by the scheduler. Depending on availability of queues ('partitions') granted to a user, priority to the system's resources is regulated. Note that the use of Anunna is not free of charge. List price of CPU time and storage, and possible discounts on that list price for your organisation, can be retrieved from Shared Research Facilities or FB-IT.
