Hour requests

Hour requests for the Dalia prototype machine are made on the DARI website and only via Dynamic Allocations.

Dalia is a prototype machine designed to host benchmarking projects or "Grand Challenge" type projects. The interest of this technology for your project must be justified in your file. A strict selection of files is made every month.

important

Since Dalia does not follow the same security access constraints as the Jean Zay, Adastra or Joliot-Curie supercomputers, it is not possible to combine Dalia hours with hours on the other supercomputers for the same project.

✉️ For any questions related to an hour request on Dalia, you can contact the GENCI at acces@genci.fr.

Computing account

important

Account openings on Dalia and Jean Zay are completely independent procedures.

In particular, since the Dalia machine is placed outside the Restricted Regime Zone (ZRR), account creation requests are not subject to ministerial authorisation.

Please note that the success of an account creation on Dalia does not guarantee the success of an account opening on Jean Zay.

The creation of a computing account or the attachment of an existing account to a new project is done through the eDARI portal, similar to what is done to access Jean Zay.

In addition to a connection IP address, you will be asked to provide an SSH public key. To do this, you can run the following command from the machine you will be connecting from:

# udlxxxxxx correspondant à votre login Dalia
ssh-keygen -t ed25519 -f ~/.ssh/udlxxxxxx-DALIA -C " udlxxxxxx-DALIA"

Then, you just need to send the public part of the generated key to the IDRIS, i.e. the file ~/.ssh/udlxxxxxx-DALIA.pub (note the extension .pub).

✉️ For any questions related to the creation of an account on Dalia, you can contact the IDRIS at gestutil@idris.fr by prefixing the subject of your email with "[Dalia]". For example:

To : gestutil@idris.fr
