Research Adviser users can request a new Virtual Machine (VM) from the National Server Program (NSP) operated as part of the NeCTAR Program.

Knowledge Centre – Research Adviser is also a community led self-service knowledge centre for Australian Research Services.
Research Adviser users if they are experience an issue with an existing service can use the self-service knowledge centre to assist them resolve their issue. Available 24/7 the knowledge-base is maintained by the service provider responsible for the service being consumed by users.

Support – Research Adviser has an advance ticketing system known as the The Ticketing Hub (TTH).
The ticketing hub allows users to log a ticket requesting help.

For Services Providers, The Ticketing Hub shows the number of tickets logged, the time it took to process the ticket, the class and type of support request – valuable information require to ensure ongoing funding and staffing requirements.
Research Adviser is a cloud based service as result each university and service provider can have their own queue with the freedom to establish virtual resolution teams across state, national and international boundaries.
