PI Dashboard : Basic Feature

PI Dashboard is a comprehensive dashboard interface for the cluster to facilitate user management, group management and ticket creation. You can access PI Dashboard here. To begin, you must have a valid vunetid to be able to log in through Vanderbilt SSO. After the login, if you're a Non-ACCRE user, you can request for an ACCRE account through the dashboard. Please note that account creation is subject to approval by the PI of the selected group during the signup process.

Basic Features

These features are accessible to all of the ACCRE users. Other management features are limited only to the PI.

Helpdesk Tickets

The PI Dashboard serves as the primary platform for creating helpdesk tickets within our system. Navigate to the ACCRE Helpdesk tab and click on "create a ticket button" to open a new ticket. Please be very descriptive about the issue you are reporting and include logs if possible, to help us assist you better. Upon the ticket submission, our staff will reach you shortly,and help you through the issue.

Group Creation Request

An existing ACCRE user account can request a new group creation through "Request New Group" tab under "My Requests". A first time non-ACCRE user can also request the creation of new group from the form available in the signup process. The signup process is only displayed to the non-ACCRE user. Existing user cannot go to the signup flow again.

Notifications

ACCRE admins leverage this functionality to communicate crucial information, such as upcoming system downtimes, essential action items, and alerts for required user actions. PIs receive notifications when users seek to join their group. They can easily approve or deny the membership through the interaction with the notification item.

Quota request

You can tailor the storage resources to evolving needs by submitting a quota request through the dashboard. Whether you require additional storage space or need to modify existing allocations, this feature allows PIs to easily change their fileset quota. The list shows all of the fileset options available to the group. PI can either increase or decrease the quota of individual fileset and send out the change request through the page. The request is subject to approval by our accre staffs, and will only be reflected on the account if approved.

Group Disclosure submission

This feature simplifies the disclosure process allowing PI’s to complete and submit necessary forms directly through the dashboard. Group disclosure must be submitted by the group PI on an annual basis.
