Legal compliance
The HPC clusters are subject to ETH’s acceptable use policy for IT resources (Benutzungsordnung für Telematik (BOT)), in particular:
- Cluster accounts are strictly personal
- DO NOT share your account (password, sshkeys) with anyone
- DO NOT use someone else’s account, even if they say it’s OK
- If you suspect that someone used your account, change your password and contact cluster-support@id.ethz.ch
Consequences:
- In case of abuse, the offender’s account may be blocked temporarily or closed
- System administrators are obliged by law to investigate abusive or illegal activities and report them to the relevant authorities
