At Michigan there are two clusters, one for human data (Armis) and one for non-PHI data (Great Lakes). Both of these are connected to a storage service called [https://arc.umich.edu/turbo/ Turbo]. These are available as part of the [https://arc.umich.edu/UMRCP/ UM Research Computing Package].

=== Permissions ===
* For access to https://datadirect.precisionhealth.umich.edu/, you need to complete these two online classes and have the VPN installed on your device.

** You also need an '''approved''' IRB noting that you will use the data direct self-service tools.

You can access the server either through the command line or through a remote desktop if you prefer a GUI. There a limited functionality to Armis2 here that can also be used (see these [https://arc.umich.edu/armis2/user-guide/ instructions]).

If you submit a deidentified data request via https://datadirect.precisionhealth.umich.edu, your data will be sent as a 7zip file to the turbo storage in a folder named for your IRB. You will be prompted to enter a password to protect this file.
