Logging in to the portal

Navigating to the portal URL e.g. https://roc.<cluster-ingress-hostname> will briefly show an empty dashboard, before temporarily redirecting to the Authentication server’s login page e.g. https://keycloak.ananki.io

Note

The username and password are your Keycloak credentials - if you have forgotten your password, please contact the system administrator.

On entering the “username” and “password” you will be redirected to the dashboard.

Clicking the user name in the drop down menu will display your name and the groups you belong to:

Logging out of the portal

To log out of the portal click the “Sign Out” button at the end of the drop down menu. This releases all resources and redirects you to the Keycloak Account Management page, where you will have to click Sign Out to terminate the Keycloak session.

Before you “Sign Out”, while still in this screen, it is possible to:

  • inspect your Personal Info,

  • configure ways to sign in

  • set up 2 factor authentication

  • change your password if required.

  • see your device activity

Note

To return to the Operations Portal you can simply browse to the Portal’s URL, or use the browser’s back button to return to the dashboard.
