Activating Supercomputing Accounts Through CLAIM

Below shows an example session for activating a supercomputing account through CLAIM:

1. Connect to tammvs.tamu.edu. You may have to specify it as tammvs.tamu.edu:992.
2. At the "aTm" screen, type CLAIM (shown in the screenshot below in green font) and hit enter:

   

3. In the next screen, type your University Identification Number (UIN) and hit enter:

   

4. Next, enter your CLAIM password and hit enter:

   

5. Select the "Logon-IDs" menu item by typing 1 and hitting enter:

   

6. Select menu item 3:

   

7. Enter your logon-ID and hit enter:

   

8. Place an x in the "Action" column next to the name of each supercomputer account you want to activate. Use either the up and down arrow keys to move from field to field or use the tab key. Hit enter when all needed systems have been marked. Note that fields with an * denote resources that are already active.

   

9. The system will now present you with a separate screen for each system you selected to activate, one after another. On each of these screens, simply place an x in the field next to the relevant account number and hit enter. For most users (especially first-time users), only one account number will be listed, so there will be no choice but to mark that one as active. Users who are given multiple accounts to choose from and are unsure which one to select may contact Greta Thomas at 845-4139 for assistance.

   

10. You will be prompted to enter a password for each account that you activate. Once this is done, you should be able to login immediately to the system for which the account was activated.
