The AWS Console opens on the AWS CloudFormation panel to deploy your stack. Update the field AdminUserEmail with a valid email to receive a temporary password in order to connect to the Pcluster Manager GUI. Leave the other fields with their default values and click Next to proceed to Step 3.
Click the two IAM boxes and click Create Stack
The setup for Pcluster Manager (and AWS ParallelCluster API) will take approximately 20 minutes.
During the setup process you will receive an automated email with a temporary password which looks like the following (except the email you receive will have a code in the place of the [REDACTED]
text below. You will use this temporary password to login to your administrator account along with the email you specified in Step 2
above.
Once the stack has been created (you should see CREATE_COMPLETE in green as the status next to the pcluster-manager
stack) -- go to the Outputs
tab and select the PclusterManagerUrl
output to access the site. Use your administrator email from Step 2
and the temporary password from your email to login to the site.
Once you have logged in to the site you will be presented with a page that looks something like the following. Likely if this is your first time interacting with ParallelCluster your list of clusters will be empty. In that case, click the Create Cluster in the top right and follow the instructions in the wizard to create your first cluster.
