Renewing a Startup allocation

Note: Although renewals for Startup allocations are permitted with appropriate justification, a principal investigator (PI) should consider requesting a Research allocation to continue research on the Extreme Science and Engineering Discovery Environment (XSEDE). In most cases, Startup allocations will not be renewed.

To renew a Startup XSEDE allocation (i.e., request to continue research activities after an allocation has ended), the principal investigator (PI) or co-PI can use the Partnership Online Proposal System (POPS), accessible via the XSEDE User Portal:

Log into the XSEDE User Portal.
On the Allocations tab, click Submit/Review Request.
On the "Welcome to POPS" page, click Click to Enter or View a Request, and then select Renewal.

For the renewal form, you can use much of the information you provided for your original allocation request. Additionally, you should add a statement that summarizes what your project has accomplished so far, and another stating what you intend to accomplish with the renewal.

Note: Files stored in archival storage are kept for one year after the expiration of an allocation. You can access archived files as soon as your renewal application is approved.

Renewing a Research allocation

To renew an XSEDE Research allocation, submit your renewal request to the XSEDE Resource Allocations Committee (XRAC) for the same month you submitted your original request. For submission deadlines, see What are the deadlines for submitting an XSEDE Research allocation request?

Other options for continuing research

You can request more calendar time to complete your research, or you can request supplemental service units (SUs) for an allocation.

Note: For multi-year allocations, PIs are required to submit yearly progress reports.

For more, see XSEDE Allocation Policies.
