Since August 2019, Advanced Research Computing – Technology Services (ARC-TS), a division of ITS, has been developing a tool that would give researchers and their delegates the ability to directly manage the IT research services they consume from ARC-TS, such as user access and usage stats.
The ARC-TS Resource Management Portal (RMP) beta tool is now available for U-M researchers.
The RMP is a self-service-only user portal with tools and APIs for research managers, unit support staff, and delegates to manage their ARC-TS IT resources. Common activities such as managing user access (adding and removing users), viewing historical usage to make informed decisions about lab resource needs, and determining volume capacity at a glance are just some of the functionality the ARC-TS RMP provides.
The portal currently provides tools for use with Turbo Research Storage, a high-capacity, reliable, secure, and fast storage solution. Longer-term, RMP will scale to include the other storage and computing services offered by ARC-TS. It is currently read-view only.
