Ordering a VM
All RWTH employees are entitled to order VMs for their organizations.
To order a VM, visit SeviRe and navigate to Virtual Server Hosting > Order VM.

PSP element and confirmation: A PSP element is required for each order, as well as a person with the role of a purchaser (Bestellung IT), who can confirm this order.
Note on cooperation between RWTH organizations:
A VM from organization A can be paid for using a PSP element from organization B. The SeviRe ordering process automatically takes care of obtaining the necessary authorizations from the involved organizations A and B.
Cancelling order
If the order has not yet been confirmed, it can be canceled under Virtual Server Hosting > Virtual Machine > VM Order History.
After confirmation by a person with the role of a purchaser (Bestellung IT) and by a network contact person, the order will be processed automatically and cannot be canceled anymore.
