👋 Introduction
Once you have sucessfully logged on to the TRE you will need to set-up your ‘workspace’, your virtual desktop where you will analyse your project data and work. These TRE workspaces are tailored environments only available to you. Our TRE is operated, maintained, and developed in the cloud and whilst there are certain security measures applied to all workspaces, there is flexibility with some decisions.
You/your PI will have provided your infrastructure requirements to HIC and you should know if a Windows or Linux (Ubuntu) workspace was agreed upon (among various important considerations, there are large cost differences between the two types). There are also different options regarding the size of compute required for that workspace, which again will have already been discussed. If you are unsure of what has been agreed for your project (and are the PI), please contact HICSupport@dundee.ac.uk .

Creating a workspace may take 20-30 minutes. This depends mainly depends on how many and what kind of applications (or which software) have been enabled on your project.
\uD83D\uDCD8 Instructions
Follow these steps to create ‘spin up’ your first workspace:
Login to the Cloud TRE using the credentials provided.
On the left menu, select Studies.
Select the Organisation tab followed by the appropriate study.
Towards the top of the page, click “Next →” to begin provisioning your workspace.
Your project will either be provisioned with an Ubuntu or Windows environment, dependent on requirements.
For Windows, selectyour credentials (please find the how-to article here).
...
Navigate to the Studies area and select your project, in this example, the project is “Project 15705-Alleviate WP5”
...
Select which operating system you want and click next. These will incur different costs so if you are unsure check with your PI/ HIC. Agreements will include whether the project has been provisioned with a Windows (Windows 2-v3.1.2
...
) or Ubuntu (Ubuntu Linux 2-v3.1) environment.
...
You can add details to your workspace here, e.g. the name (helping TRE users with mutliple projects keep track of their workspace). You can choose your Project ID from a drop down menu and select yes/no to allow inbound traffic, e.g. sharing created dashboards within projects.
...
Enter a name for your workspace. This name will be used later to keep track of your data
...
output requests, so you may wish to name it something relevant to the analysis you will be performing.
Ignore Restricted CIDR
Select the account to create this workspace in. There will likely only be one, based on the study you selected earlier.
Select no to “Allow inbound traffic from project environment”. You will only want to do this if you want to make web applications or services accessible to other workspaces in the provisioned project network.
Select the appropriate image based on your requirements.
Enter a brief description - this is a required field but may not be useful to you. You can use this to store any information which you may wish to keep track of for the workspace.
Click Create Research Workspace
Finally, select “Create Research Workspace” and you should end up on this screen whilst waiting for the workspace to be spun up. The process may take between 20 and 30 minutes.
...
Ideally, you should only need to do this once in your project life cycle.
