There are many reasons you may be having issues logging in. A list of possible reasons may include:
  • You haven't created an account yet.
  • Your account isn't sponsored yet.
  • You aren't using two-factor authentication (NetID+).
  • You need to wait 15 minutes. If you just created your account, it takes time before you can log in.
  • You're trying to connect using ssh NetID@login.hpc.arizona.edu. This will not work. Instead, use: ssh NetID@hpc.arizona.edu.
  • You're using NetID@hpc.arizona.edu or NetID@email.arizona.edu as your username in PuTTY. Instead, use only your NetID.
  • You've entered your password incorrectly too many times. After multiple failed password entries, the system will place a 60 minute ban on your account for security reasons.

Linux systems do not display character strokes while entering your password which can make it look like the ssh client is frozen. Even though it doesn't appear that anything is happening, the system is still logging your input. To proceed, type your password at the prompt and press enter.

If you have just registered for an HPC account, you need to wait a little while for the request to propagate through the University systems (this can take up to an hour).  Patience (smile)

You need an HPC account - see our Account Creation page for details.  Once you've done that, you'll need to wait a little while to log in. If your PI hasn't already added you to their group, you'll need to wait for that as well.

This error appears when you have entered your password incorrectly too many times. A security lock is automatically put in place for 60 minutes. After multiple failed password entries, the system will place a 60 minute ban on your account for security reasons. If you wait until 60 minutes has elapsed, you can try to log in again.

This specific error shows up when your NetID has been locked, usually due to multiple failed login attempts when trying to access university services. Contact 24/7 to unlock your account: https://it.arizona.edu/get-support

  • Ensure you are using the correct password. Sometimes typing your password into a plain text file and copying/pasting it into the terminal can help.
  • You need to wait about 15 minutes after your account is approved for the account to be available
  • You must enroll in NetId. Depending on the application you use to log in, you may not get the typical NetID+/DUO menu of options, or an error message indicating this is your problem

Yes, if you are a former university affiliate or campus collaborator participating in research, you may register as a Designated Campus Colleague (DCC). Once your DCC status has been approved, you will receive a NetID+ which you may use to create an HPC Account. If you already have an HPC Account, no further action is required.
