IMPORTANT NOTICE
IMPORTANT NOTICE
⚠ As of May 21st 2024 Partners MGB Network Security has implemented restrictions for external / remote connectivity to all DFCI and MGB servers. This includes ada and noah which are no longer accessible without an internal network connection via on-site wifi or off-site VPN.
Remote / off-site access to any of our servers will require VPN connectivity or use of additional software for non-affiliated collaborators who cannot use the Partners MGB VPN.
DFCI staff / affiliated MGB personnel: please refer to this site (click) to log in, download the software and find instructions on obtaining and using the institute's VPN. If you encounter any issues with this contact Systems via email or Slack.
If you or a colleague needs access to our servers and you are not a DFCI or MGB employee with VPN access, please contact systems@ds.dfci.harvard.edu and specify your needs so we can help you with the alternate solution for server access.

⚠️ Login servers (ada,orion) are used for general computing / low resource-intensive work. As outlined below, some of these hosts have significantly more memory or CPU than others.
We encourage large data transfers to be executed on lyra or libra or lepus. Please use the Kraken cluster only for large and multi-core jobs.
Data Science Accounts
Data Science Accounts
You are assigned 2 or 3 different accounts as part of your onboarding. The username will be the same on all Data Science department accounts (Unix, Windows and Google), along with the initial password, but you will be required to change them upon first login.
NOTE: These passwords are distinct and changing the password on one account does not mean that the password on the other two accounts is changed. There are different ways to change each account's password. Your departmental username and password will be emailed to you separately.
