Requesting an allocation

To get an allocation via Puhuri Portal, project participants must first request it. Request can be initiated by any user, however it must be approved:

  • by PI before being sent to Resource Allocator.
  • by Resource Allocator before being sent to Puhuri Core for processing by the service.

Below is an example of requesting an allocation from LUMI supercomputer:

  1. Select "Add resource" or "Go to Marketplace" from the sidebar menu and select offering that matches your plans. For LUMI, offerings correspond to access types of EuroHPC:
    • Extreme Scale Access
    • Regular Access
    • Benchmark Access
    • Development Access
    • Fast Track Access for Academia
    • Fast Track Access for Industry

  2. Write the name for the resource allocation (NOTE: This name will be visible in accounting data.).
  3. Select correct plan (LUMI common) and write needed allocation quota (CPU, GPU and Storage).
  4. Write short description (optional).
  5. Click on the "Add to cart".
  6. Check once more and click on "Request an approval" if you are not a PI in a project or "Request" if you are a PI.

After this, Resource allocator will get a request for resource and be able to approve or reject it.
