Create and Access the Control Plane Tenant
To access NVIDIA Run:ai SaaS, create a control plane tenant through the NVIDIA GPU Cloud (NGC) catalog. The tenant is your organization's dedicated, NVIDIA-hosted Run:ai environment. The control plane provides the central management layer for NVIDIA Run:ai, handling multi-cluster management, resource and access management, as well as workload submission and monitoring. NVIDIA hosts and maintains the control plane. Once the tenant is provisioned, you can install the NVIDIA Run:ai cluster and connect it to the control plane, making it ready to run training, inference, and other workloads.
Note
To create a control plane tenant, your NGC account must have an active entitlement for NVIDIA Run:ai SaaS.
Prerequisites
An active NVIDIA Run:ai SaaS entitlement in your NGC organization. To activate your entitlement, see Activating an NGC Product from an NVIDIA Commercial Entitlement Certificate.
Provision the Control Plane Tenant
Note
To delegate provisioning to another user, go to org.ngc.nvidia.com/users and assign them the NVIDIA Run:ai SaaS Admin role. They can then go to runai.ngc.nvidia.com to perform the provisioning steps.
Log in to NGC and navigate to Catalog -> NVIDIA Run:ai SaaS.
In the Create Control Plane Tenant dialog, fill in the following:
Tenant Admin Email - Pre-filled with your NGC account email. You can assign additional admins after provisioning is complete.
Tenant Alias - A unique subdomain name for your tenant URL (for example,
myorgresults inmyorg.nv.run.ai).
Click Create Control Plane Tenant. NGC provisions your tenant. This may take a few minutes.
Once provisioning is complete, the following details are displayed:
Tenant Name - An auto-generated identifier for the tenant.
Tenant Alias - The alias you provided.
Tenant Domain - The URL of your NVIDIA Run:ai control plane, based on your alias (for example,
myorg.nv.run.ai).Created - The date and time the tenant was created.
Note
This is the only time your Tenant Alias and Tenant Domain are displayed. If you want to access your tenant directly using the Tenant Domain URL, make a note of it now. Alternatively, you can always access your tenant by navigating to runai.ngc.nvidia.com, which automatically redirects you.
An email is sent to the Tenant Admin Email address with a link to activate your account.

Open the activation email and click SIGN IN TO NVIDIA RUN:AI.
On the password setup page, enter a New Password, confirm it, and click Reset password.

On the NVIDIA Run:ai sign-in page, enter your email and new password, then click Sign In.
