• Blue Waters Operations transition - Portal login change

  Created by: bbode 2019-12-03 15:02:16 (Channels: general|policychange)

  Hello Blue Waters partners,

     In seven days, on December 10th, the authentication method for the Blue Waters user portal will be changed from the current RSA PIN+tokencode to NCSA Duo. This change will mean that existing Blue Waters users will no longer be able to login to the portal. Most portal functions such as documentation and usage information are available without logging in, but functions such as adding/removing users will be impacted. This is being done to support the transition to the NGA phase of operations when all projects will utilize NCSA Duo for authencation. Please note that RSA based two-factor logins will continue to function on the current login and data mover (Globus) nodes until 3/31/2020.

  If you need contiued login portal access please open a ticket via help+bw@ncsa.illinois.edu with your reason for continued access. All new projects for 2020 will be receiving information on obtaining Duo tokens as part of the project setup process that will happen between Dec. 10th and 19th.

   

  Thank you, 

  The Blue Waters team.
