+ <h1>How to Run Folding@Home in the Azure-cloud</h1>
+ <p><b>IMPORTANT NOTE: This guide is currently in BETA-state. Things will
+ probably not work 100% of the time. Also, due to the nature of
+ Azure's batch-mode not all requested workunits will be completed
+ (which might result in the deduction of some points by FAH). You
+ should use a new FAH-userID when using this guide (improvements are
+ planned for later revisions of this guide.)</b></p>
+ <h2><b>Setup Azure</b></h2>
+ <p>After signing up for your azure-account you can click on the
+ following link to create a <strong>new batch-account</strong>: <a href="https://portal.azure.com/#create/Microsoft.BatchAccount">https://portal.azure.com/#create/Microsoft.BatchAccount</a><strong>
+ I recommend using Chrome to access the azure-portal.</strong> Fill
+ the form with the following information:<br>
+ </p>
+ <ul>
+ <li><strong>Resource Group: Click 'Create New' and give it a name,
+ e.g. 'myRecGroup'</strong><br>
+ <strong></strong></li>
+ <li><strong>Account name: Just a name for your batch-account</strong></li>
+ <strong> </strong>
+ <li><strong>Location: Choose 'East US'</strong></li>
+ <strong> </strong>
+ <li><strong>Leave the other options at the default-settings.</strong></li>
+ <strong> </strong>
+ <li><strong>Click on 'Review+Create' at the bottom and then on
+ 'Create" on the following page to create the batch-account</strong></li>
+ </ul>
+ <p> Once you get the notification that your batch-account has been
+ created (it will take a few seconds), go to your batch-account (link
+ to your batch-accounts: <a href="https://portal.azure.com/#blade/HubsExtension/Resources/resourceType/Microsoft.Batch%2FbatchAccounts">https://portal.azure.com/#blade/HubsExtension/Resources/resourceType/Microsoft.Batch%2FbatchAccounts</a>)
+ and <strong>create a new pool</strong>: select <strong>'Pools'</strong>
+ and then click <strong>'Add'</strong>. Fill the form with the
+ following information:<br>
+ </p>
+ <ul>
+ <li> <strong>Section 'Pool Detail':</strong></li>
+ <strong> </strong>
+ <ul>
+ <li><strong>Pool ID: Just a name for your azure-pool</strong></li>
+ <li><strong>VM Size: 'Standard F1 (1 Cores, 2GB)'</strong></li>
+ </ul>
+ <strong> </strong>
+ <li><strong> Section 'Operating System':</strong></li>
+ <strong> </strong>
+ <ul>
+ <li><strong>Publisher: Canonical</strong></li>
+ <li><strong>SKU: 18-04 LTS</strong></li>
+ </ul>
+ <strong></strong>
+ <li><strong> Leave the other options at the
+ default-settings.</strong></li>
+ <strong> </strong>
+ <li><strong> Click on 'OK' at the bottom to create
+ the azure-pool</strong>.</li>
+ </ul>
+ <p>You'll also need a storage account. Enter "storage" into the search
+ box at the very top of the page. Then click on the option "Storage
+ accounts" that appears, then click on Add. Fill the form with the
+ following information:</p>
+ <ul>
+ <li><b>Section 'Project Details'</b></li>
+ <ul>
+ <li><b>Resource group: Select the previously created resource group</b></li>
+ </ul>
+ <li><b>Section 'Instance Details'</b></li>
+ <ul>
+ <li><b>Storage account name: Choose a new name for your storage
+ account. Fill in the name in the following field (this is
+ required for the generation of the startup-script):</b></li>
+ <ul>
+ <ul>
+ </ul>
+ <li> <input name="storageaccount" size="75" id="storageaccount"
+ type="text"></li>
+ <ul>
+ </ul>
+ </ul>
+ </ul>
+ </ul>
+ <ul>
+ <ul>
+ <ul>
+ </ul>
+ <li><b>Location</b>: <strong>Choose 'East US'</strong></li>
+ <li><b>Replication: Choose Locally redundant Storage (LRS)</b></li>
+ </ul>
+ <li><b> Leave the other options at the default-settings.</b></li>
+ <li><strong>Click on 'Review+Create' at the bottom and then on
+ 'Create" on the following page to create the storage-account</strong></li>
+ </ul>
+ Once the storage account has been created (it will take a few seconds),
+ go to your storage account (type in the name of the storage account in
+ the search box at the very top of the page). Then scroll down until you
+ see the option 'Files' and click on it. Then create a new file-share by
+ clicking on "+File share" at the top of the page. Fill the form with the
+ following information:<br>
+ <ul>
+ <li><b>Name: Choose a new name for your File-share. Fill in the name
+ in the the following field (this is required for the generation of

+ <li><input name="fileshare" size="30" id="fileshare" type="text"></li>
+ <li><b>Quota: right now each node requires 500MB of storage. Choose a
+ quota well above the minimum, e.g. 20GB if you want to run 20
+ nodes.</b></li>
+ </ul>
+ Go again back to the storage account and click on 'Access keys' in
+ the left window. Copy over the value you see in the field 'key' into the
+ field below (there are two keys: key1 and key2 - you can pick either. It
+ should look like a long string of random characters)
+ <ul>
+ <li> <strong><input name="passkey" size="30" id="passkey" type="text"></strong></li>
+ <ul>
