Account request

When you would like to use one of the services that is provided by ID SIS HPC, then you need to authenticate yourself with an account. For some services we use the NETHZ account for authentication, for others there are accounts, which are local on the system.

Brutus

Since the Brutus cluster will soon be end-of-life, new Accounts on Brutus are only created for current shareholders of Brutus. If you are not in a shareholder group of Brutus, then you may use the Euler cluster. Members of a shareholder group that would like to use Brutus can fill out the account request form at

Euler

We have reduced the administrative procedure to zero: no paperwork, no account request form, nothing. Any member of ETH can use Euler straight away; the only requirement is a valid NETHZ account.
