Contributors netapp-tonacki netapp-bcammett

Workload Factory is accessible from a web-based console. When you get started with Workload Factory, your first step is to sign up using your existing NetApp Support Site credentials or by creating a NetApp cloud login.

About this task

You can sign up to Workload Factory using one of the following options:

  • Your existing NetApp Support Site (NSS) credentials

  • A NetApp cloud login by specifying your email address and a password

Steps
  1. Open a web browser and go to the Workload Factory console

  2. If you have a NetApp Support Site account, enter the email address associated with your NSS account directly on the Log in page.

    You can skip the sign up page if you have an NSS account. Workload Factory will sign you up as part of this initial login.

  3. If you don't have an NSS account and you want to sign up by creating a NetApp cloud login, select Sign up.

    Note that only English characters are allowed in the sign up form.

  5. Enter the detailed information for your company and select Sign up.

  6. Check your inbox for an email from NetApp that includes instructions to verify your email address.

    This step is required before you can log in.
