Getting a RCTF Account

Access to the PODs is controlled by RCTF accounts.   To access a POD you will first need to request a RCTF account if you don't already have one.

Info
A TACC account is required by the account request form.   If you don't already have a TACC account, you should   get one before proceeding.  See TACC Information for help.

...

Use the "New Account Request" form (button) to sign up for an account. Upon a successful submission, an account will be created on the system.  You can login later to check you resources allocation. You will not be able to access any POD resources until a POD resource manager adds your account to the relevant Pod groups.

Updating RCTF passwords and account information

Password can only be updated using the RCTF Account Management website. This allows RCTF to capture password changes in one place then deploy those changes to multiple servers.

Info
Note: The passwd password-change program has been disabled on all compute servers to enforce this restriction.

To update your RCTF password, go to the change password form (https://rctf-account-request.icmb.utexas.edu/change-password/). Password changes will propagate to your authorized computing servers within a few hours.

To update your account and contact information with RCTF, go to https://rctf-account-request.icmb.utexas.edu/cqb/ and login.  Use , login, and use the "Update contact info" form to update your account data. Except for the username and eid EID fields, all other fields , including passwords, in your account record can be updated. Password and name fields will propagate to your POD account on your authorized computing servers.  You can also change your passwords using the 'change password' form.
