Ask support

Before writing to us, consider checking the Known issues page to see if the problem you're experiencing has already been reported. If you can't find the information you need on this wiki, send email to the address below that you think best matches your need.

Please do not send a new support request as a follow-up on an old email thread. Instead, start a brand new one to avoid re-opening an old ticket.

• globus@computecanada.ca -- Questions about Globus file transfer services
• cloud@computecanada.ca -- Questions about using CC-Cloud resources
• accounts@computecanada.ca -- Questions about Compute Canada accounts
• renewals@computecanada.ca -- Questions about Compute Canada account renewals
• support@computecanada.ca -- Any other issue

Information required

To help us help you better, please include the following information:

• Your full name
• Compute Canada default username
• University or institution
• Cluster name
• Scheduler Job ID
• Provide your job submission script (copy and paste, or attach)
• Provide your complete output files where you see errors (copy and paste, or attach)
• Commands that you were executing
• Identify the software (including the version) you were trying to use
• Please try to adhere to the formal writing style, follow grammar rules, capitalize properly, and divide text into paragraphs
• If you want us to access, copy or edit your files, or inspect your account and possibly make changes there, you should state so explicitly in your email. For example, instead of attaching files to an email, you may tell where they are located in your account and give us permission to access them. If you have already granted us permission via the CCDB interface to access your files, then you do not need to do it again in your support request.
