How to request data resources
...
Go to the Home page (this is effectively your personal dashboard in RCP).
Click Create Activity (or skip to step 4 if you want touse an existing Activity you’ve already got on your dashboard).
Fill out the resultant form and press Submit. (Note that some Activities may require approval and you will not be able to proceed with the next steps while that approval is pending).
Locate the Activity on your dashboard and click its Add Resource button.
In the resultant pop-out window, click Add Resource on the particular resource you want to request.
Click Provide requirements in the resultant pop-out window.
Fill out the resultant form and press Submit.
Locate the newly added resource in your Activity and click Request an Allocation.
Fill out the required fields in the resultant pop-out window, and click Request.
When will I be able to access the storage?
You’ll be able to access your storage as soon as your allocation is provisioned (this can take up to 48 hours).
Who else will be able to access it?
If you have any other users already associated with the Activity to which the allocation belongs, specifically with ‘Manage Resources’ privileges, they too will get automatic access to the storage when you do. To manage access to the storage, go to the allocation’s respective ‘Manage’ page and use the ‘Add/Remove Users’ function there (that is, manage it at the granular level of the allocation’s users, not at the universal level of the Activity’s users).

How to change quotas
The essential steps are:
Go to the Home page (this is effectively your personal dashboard in RCP).
Locate the particular allocation whose storage quota you’d like to change, and press its Manage button.
Click on Edit Quota in the resultant screen.
Adjust your quota in the Quota (GB) field of the resultant pop-out window.
Click the Edit Quota button.
Note: While some quota changes are automatically approved, others may require manual approval by RCS which can take up to 48 hrs. You can keep an eye on the request status via the status table in the ‘Edit Quota’ section of the resource’s ‘Manage’ page.
