9 Ch. 2.1: Getting a DRAC Account
Getting a DRAC account
All Alliance users need an account, called the CCDB account. Accounts are part of research groups.
Accounts are classified according to a variety of roles, with a key role being the Principal Investigator PI. The PI leads the work of a research group on Alliance resources. Once a PI‘s registration for a CCDB account is complete, Group Members can register for accounts affiliated with the PI.
Registration is completed via an online form, available on the detailed documentation page linked below. To register, Group Members will need the Role Identifier provided to their PI during the PI‘s registration.
Further details and the current registration process may be found here.
