Production Project Accounts

Overview

Most NERSC login accounts are associated with specific individuals and must not be shared. Sometimes it is advantageous to have a login account which is not tied to a person but instead to the group for the purposes of shared access to batch jobs or data. Project Accounts are designed to facilitate collaborative computing by allowing multiple users to use the same account.  All actions performed by the Project Account are traceable back to the individual who used the Project Account to perform those actions via gsisshd accounting logs. 

Currently, Production Project Accounts are restricted to PDSF Experiments/Repositories. Further information on Project Accounts can be found here: Project Accounts Overview
