HiPerGator-RV Account Process

If you are trying to request a HiPerGator account on our regular cluster, and do not intend to be using the Restricted Computing system, please request an account on our HiPerGator Account Request page instead.

HiPerGator-RV is a secure data management and analysis environment. Use of the system is limited both by policy and by the need for investments to establish access.

Faculty wishing to use HiPerGator-RV for research should:

  • Open a UFIT Support Request to begin the process. In addition, please provide the following:
    • Information about the type of data being analyzed and compliance measures required (please provide IRB, Risk Assessment, or TCP numbers as appropriate).
    • What software will be needed to analyze the data.
    • If available, a list of users who will need training and access.
  • UFIT Research Computing will establish one or more teams to analyze the needs of the user and provide a plan as needed.
    • See the price sheets for Hardware (5 years) and Service (variable duration) investments (be sure to look at the HiPerGator-RV tabs).
    • Use the purchase request forms to make an investment.
  • Once a team has been established, all users should download the tiCrypt Connect software and UF deployment file.
  • Open a UFIT Support Request to set up a live (in-person or online) training session for your team. Accounts will be activated at the training. You will not be able to login until the account is activated.
