Who Can Access the ELSA HPC Cluster

Currently, anyone with TCNJ login and password can activate their account on the cluster. This may change in the future if there is contention for the resource.

How Do I "Activate" My TCNJ Account on the Cluster

Activating your account sets up some critical files that are needed before you can use the cluster. This only need to be done once. It sets up your home directory which is a space for you to store your personal files, programs and application configuration files. It also sets up SSH keys which are used by to encrypt network traffic between the computer you are using and the cluster.

Accessing the Cluster via Open OnDemand

Once you have activated your account, you can use a web portal to access common function on the cluster. This web portal is called Open OnDemand and can be access at the URL https://ondemand.hpc.tcnj.edu/. Use your existing TCNJ login and password when prompted.
