HLRN introduction
The North German Supercomputing Alliance (Norddeutscher Verbund für Hoch- und Höchstleistungsrechnen – HLRN) operates a distributed supercomputer system. The system is hosted at the two HLRN sites Georg-August-Universität Göttingen and Zuse Institute Berlin and is dedicated to the scientific research community in Germany.
The users of the HLRN are supported by a transregional and interdisciplinary competence network consisting of application experts. This network involves all boards and institutions in the HLRN. The alliance is represented in the Gauß-Allianz by the two HLRN sites. ¹
The University Oldenburg is represented in the HLRN network by Stefan Harfst, who acts as local consultant. The HLRN support can be reached by sending an e-mail to support@hlrn.de.
Sign up to HLRN
Members of the CvO University of Oldenburg are entitled to make use of the supercomputing resources of the North German Supercomputing Alliance (HLRN) and you can make a request to get access to the cluster network. To do so, it is mandatory to fill out, sign, and send an application form for a user account. You can find the forms in English or German language. Among other things, the form asks for an active compute project. Should you currently have no approved compute project, choose Other reason and specify your currently proposed compute project. After completion, the document will be sent to you by e-mail (please use your University e-mail in the application process) as a PDF, which you must sign yourself and then also get a signature from your institute director. Afterwards, the form must be sent to Stefan Harfst, who is the local HLRN consultant. The signatures and the institute stamp can added electronically to the PDF (alternatively, please scan the document into a single PDF). The PDF with the final signature from the local consultant will be mailed to HLRN, sending a paper copy should no longer be necessary (regardless of what the instructions say).
Should you have any further questions, you can send an e-mail to the HPC support or directly contact the local HLRN consultant Stefan Harfst.
For further information, you can visit the HLRN project website.
