• Username — the username to log in to the cluster.
• Password — the password to log in to the cluster.
• OpenVPN file — a file with the setting for VPN connection to the cluster.

For an SSH connection, specify:

• DNS name / Pubic IP — the resource human-readable address in the Domain Name System (DNS) format (such as example.com) or the resource IP address (numerical, such as 100.0.100.0).
• Username — the account name on the remote resource server.
• SSH port — the port number on the remote resource server to establish an SSH connection.
• SSH Key — the private key for authentication on the remote resource server.

After you added all necessary resources, you can create a workflow that uses these resources to process the project data. See Managing workflows.
