    2. Contact the Research Computing by emailingÌýthem at rc-help@colorado.eduÌýand request access to the Blanca nodes. Your email should contain:
      • Your name
      • Your identikey
      • Your position(If you are faculty member, post doc, graduate student, etc.)
      • Who your supervisor is, if you are not a faculty member
      • What you intend to use the nodes for

Two connected Blanca nodes are accessible to applied mathematics faculty members and graduate students for running computational jobs, which require sixteen or more cores. These machines are accessible upon request. Please familiarize yourself with the documentation before you request an account. Improper use of these machines may result in a discontinuation of the users account. Note that if you are a graduate student, you will need to have your advisor contact the IT professional and verify that they would like their student to have access.
