Apply to use Nimbus


To begin using

...

Nimbus

...

, submit an application at Pawsey's application portal.  Detailed how-to is given here

IMPORTANT:

...

All projects now have a six-month validity period, after which an application must be submitted for an extension if continued Nimbus use if required

...

(an automated email will be sent with a link to a pre-filled form).

All Nimbus projects also get 1TB of Acacia object storage automatically (can request up to 10TB) via the application portal page.


Begin using Nimbus


If you are new to Nimbus, you can review Nimbus documentation, view a short video, access training material, or view upcoming training events.

If you have an existing project and want to migrate your instance(s) to the new hardware, you have two options:

  • Follow the migration instructions, until the deadline for instance migrations. See the table below for key dates.
  • If you want assistance with migration, sign up for one of our migration sprints, during which our staff will help you.

The old Nimbus equipment will be decommissioned, so if you do not want to migrate, you will need to move your data to other storage by the cut off date as shown below.

Information Sessions

Pawsey staff will be running online information sessions and Pawsey Hours to provide you with general information about the new system. Staff can answer your questions about the application process, instance migration, or how to get started. See the Dates table below for the details and the link to access the sessions.

Migration Sprints

Pawsey staff are running migration sprints to assist existing users with getting their instances running on the new hardware. These sessions will centre on the migration instructions. To receive support in migration, sign up for one of the sprints on the sign up link.

Below are key dates about Nimbus, including links to relevant material.
