# Prerequisites for using Rackham | ||
|
||
To be allowed to [log in to Rackham](../getting_started/login_rackham.md), | ||
one needs all of these: | ||
|
||
- [An active research project](#an-active-research-project) | ||
- [An UPPMAX account](#an-uppmax-user-account) | ||
- [An UPPMAX password](#an-uppmax-password) | ||
|
||
These prerequisites are discussed in detail below. | ||
|
||
## An active research project | ||
|
||
One [prerequisite for using Rackham](#prerequisites-for-using-rackham) | ||
is that you need to be a member of an active SNIC SENS | ||
or SIMPLER research project (these are called `sens[number]` or `simp[number]`, | ||
where `[number]` represent a number, for example `sens123456` or `simp123456`). | ||
|
||
???- question "Forgot your Rackham projects?" | ||
|
||
One easy way to see your Rackham projects is to use the | ||
Rackham remote desktop login screen at <https://rackham.uppmax.uu.se/>. | ||
|
||
![The Rackham remote desktop login screen](./img/rackham_remote_desktop_login_shows_sens_projects.png) | ||
|
||
[SUPR](https://supr.naiss.se/) (the 'Swedish User and Project Repository') | ||
is the website that allows one to request access to Rackham | ||
and to get an overview of the requested resources. | ||
|
||
???- question "How does the SUPR website look like?" | ||
|
||
![First SUPR page](./img/supr_first_page.png) | ||
|
||
> First SUPR page | ||
|
||
![SUPR 2FA login](./img/supr_2fa.png) | ||
|
||
> SUPR 2FA login. Use the SUPR 2FA (i.e. **not** UPPMAX) | ||
|
||
After logging in, the [SUPR](https://supr.naiss.se/) | ||
website will show all projects you are a member of, | ||
under the 'Projects' tab. | ||
|
||

|
||

||

|
||
To see if a project has access to Rackham, click on the | ||
project and scroll to the 'Resources' section. In the 'Compute' subsection, | ||
there is a table. Under 'Resource' it should state 'Rackham @ UPPMAX'. | ||
|
||
???- question "How does the 'Resources' page of an example project look like?" | ||
|
||
![The 'Resources' page of an example project.](./img/supr_project_sens2023598_resources.png) | ||
|
||
> The 'Resources' page of an example project. | ||
|
||
Note that the 'Accounts' tab can be useful to verify your username. | ||
|
||
???- question "How does the 'Accounts' tab help me find my username?" | ||
|
||
![An example of a SUPR 'Accounts' tab](./img/supr_accounts.png) | ||
|
||
> An example of a SUPR 'Accounts' tab. | ||
> The example user has username `richel-sens2023598`, | ||
> which means his/her UPPMAX username is `richel` | ||
|
||
You can become a member of an active SNIC SENS by: | ||
|
||
- request membership to an existing project in SUPR | ||
- create a project. See the UPPMAX page on | ||
how to submit a project application [here](project_apply.md) | ||
|
||
## An UPPMAX user account | ||
|
||
Another [prerequisite for using Rackham](#prerequisites-for-using-rackham) | ||
is that you must have a personal [UPPMAX user account](../getting_started/user_account.md). | ||
|
||
## An UPPMAX password | ||
|
||
Another [prerequisite for using Rackham](#prerequisites-for-using-rackham) | ||
is that you need to know your UPPMAX password. | ||
If you change it, it may take up to an hour before changes are reflected in Rackham. | ||
