Get a FASSE Account and Project Group

Set up your account

1. Get a new FASRC account
   1. Important: Be sure to request “FASRC Cluster Access” on the “Services” page
2. Set or reset your FASRC password: https://portal.rc.fas.harvard.edu/p3/pwreset/
3. Set up 2 factor authentication, which is also called 2FA: https://docs.rc.fas.harvard.edu/kb/openauth/
4. Get your VPN working: https://docs.rc.fas.harvard.edu/kb/vpn-setup/
   1. You will not be able to log into the FASSE VPN until you are a member of a FASSE project group, but you can log into the general fasrc VPN realm following the above instructions.

Set up or join a project group

If you do not have a group for your project:

1. Satisfy HRDSP application requirements
2. Fill out the FASSE New Project Request Form

If you want to join an existing project group

1. Navigate to the Add Grants page in portal
2. Expand the plus sign next to “Other”
3. Find the project group you want to be added to
4. Select the checkbox for the project group you want to be added to
5. You PI will have to approve the addition.  Once you’re notified of the approval, it can take up to an hour for your permissions to be configured.  If you’re not able to access the VPN or your home directory, try waiting an hour and logging in again.

Start using FASSE once your account and project group are configured
