Contents
First steps
- I have a grid certificate;
- I have installed my grid certificate in my browser;
- I have registered with the Imperial DIRAC server by emailing Janusz with my grid certificate DN and the name of the VO(s) I am a member of;
- I have accessed the Imperial DIRAC server at https://dirac.grid.hep.ph.ic.ac.uk:8443 ;
- I have joined the Imperial DIRAC mailing list.
First steps - testing
- Accessing the Imperial DIRAC server: access https://dirac.grid.hep.ph.ic.ac.uk:8443 with your browser. If your grid certificate has been successfully installed in your browser, your browser should ask you to identify yourself with the certificate in question. You will then see the Imperial DIRAC server homepage. Check the bottom right-hand corner - if you can only see Visitor and not your username and DN, you are (or rather, your certificate is) not registered with the Imperial DIRAC server - contact Janusz.
- Joining the Imperial DIRAC mailing list: once you have subscribed, you should be able to view the subscribers list from the list homepage and see that you're on it.
Your Virtual Organisation
- I have joined a supported Virtual Organisation (VO);
- I have checked that my VO is supported by the Imperial DIRAC server;
- I have accessed the Imperial DIRAC server as a member of my VO.
Your Virtual Organisation - testing
- Joining a VO: You should receive a confirmation email with the subject [VOMS Admin] Your vo membership request for VO [VO name] has been approved. - where [VO name] is the name of the VO - within 24 hours. You may be asked to confirm the request - make sure you don't accidentally cancel the request.
- Accessing the Imperial DIRAC server as a VO member: access https://dirac.grid.hep.ph.ic.ac.uk:8443 with your browser. Click on the drop-down menu displaying Visitor. You should be able to select your VO by clicking on the name. If not, contact Janusz.
