Obtaining 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.
To request a RCTF account, go to https://rctf-account-request.icmb.utexas.edu/cqb/
Use the "New Account Request" form (button) to sign up for an account.
Upon a successful submission of the Account Request form, an RCTF account will be created but you will not yet have access to any POD resources.
Based on the Affilitation(s) you indicated in your account information, your resource request will be directed to a POD account manager who will review your request and grant you access to the appropriate POD Resources.
To see what RCTF POD resources have been made available to you, log in to the RCTF Account Management website https://rctf-account-request.icmb.utexas.edu/cqb/.
Once you have been granted resources on one or more PODs, you can access those resources as described at POD Resources and Access.
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.
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 contact information and affiliations, go to https://rctf-account-request.icmb.utexas.edu/cqb/, login, and use the Update contact info form. Except for the username and EID fields, all other fields in your account record can be updated.
