A Unix permission group equivalent to the course project name is created on both the CRAYs and SGIs, and all students in the project are put into the group. To gain physical access to an ARSC Visualization Laboratory , each student must sign a Visualization Laboratory Access Agreement . ARSC requests that students discuss resource allocation and other problems with their professor, who in turn, attempts to solve the problem or contacts ARSC User Services for assistance. Inactivation The project and all associated student accounts are deleted from the CRAYs and the SGIs no later than two weeks following the last day of finals for the semester in which the course ends. If the course spans both fall and spring semesters, the project and accounts remain active through the winter break.
Inactivation occurs following spring semester finals.
If this is the student's only project, then the student's User ID will be inactivated as well. Students who wish to continue their research following the inactivation of their student account must obtain a regular ARSC user account. ARSC reserves the right to inactivate any user, without notice, if it suspects that someone is attempting to circumvent ARSC security measures, compromise the system, gain access to other user accounts, or otherwise use ARSC resources inappropriately. All incidents will be investigated by one or more ARSC Information System Security Officers. Every user of ARSC systems, including UA students and professors, must follow ARSC's Security Policy .
