User Support

If you already have a user account, you can be added directly by the project leaders. Otherwise, you may apply for access.

As long as you have a valid mobile phone number registered with us, and active access to any of the systems, you may reset your password via our self-service portal.

Useful information, including how to log in, is available in our technical documentation on Getting started.

There can be multiple reasons for this. If you recently changed your password, please wait up to one hour before trying to log in.

If you still cannot log in, verify that your username and password are correct. You may do so by trying to log in to MAS.
If that does not work, you could try resetting your password.

In case you have tried the above without success, please contact support on contact@sigma2.no and we'll gladly look into the matter for you.

Your affiliation has expired in our system. There are a few reasons for this.

Please contact support on contact@sigma2.no with information about your current affiliation to get this updated.
We normally request the following:

• Organization/institute
• Position
• E-mail address
• Mobile phone number

The allocation periods are split into two:

• Periods ending with ".1" starts 1 April and ends 30 September.
• Periods ending with ".2" starts 1 October and ends 31 March.

They are prefixed with the year they start, so for example period 2022.1 starts on 1 April and ends on 30 September 2022

We need a valid application for each period. Please refer to the call for each period for more details.

Please note that it is not possible to transfer unused CPU hours between periods.

You can apply for a project at LUMI through our regular application procedure, through metacenter.no.

If you would like access to an existing project, your PI must send an email to contact@sigma2.no with your contact details. Please send a list of "email - name - nationality" to contact@sigma2.no with subject "<your-project-number e.g.,nn0000k> add project member in LUMI".

To find your username:
1. Login to puhuri.metacenter.no using your MyAccessID account.
2. In the top right corner, find your profile and click “Credentials > Remote accounts”.
3. If a LUMI username has been assigned to you, it will be listed on this page.

If no username is listed on this page, then see: I was invited to a LUMI project, but I cannot login to LUMI, or find the project in the Puhuri portal.

Find the invitation email to the project containing the invitation link and click this link (again). Now you should have access to the project. If the link has expired, you need to contact Sigma2 at contact@sigma2.no.

Sometimes, for new users who need to create an account during the invitation process, the process is interrupted. Clicking the link again, once the registration process is complete, should fix it. If not, please contact us at the email address mention above.

The Puhuri portal with url puhuri.metacenter.no is where you administer* your Norwegian LUMI projects. *Puhuri functionality is being integrated into metacenter.no

The documentation for the portal is here: https://puhuri.neic.no/

MyAccessID is an IAM service used by Puhuri and LUMI provided by GEANT.

Should you run out of resources on LUMI, you can submit an extra application by following the instructions on this website: https://www.sigma2.no/extra-allocation 

If you are out of storage quota (TB hours), send us an email at contact@sigma2.no.
