| Confluence is is widely used by the CDMS collaboration for its internal documentation so the first step as a new member of the collaboration is to gain access to our internal Confluence space. If you plan to access and analyze data please get a full SLAC account (see next section below). If you don't plan to analyze data, you can get access to Confluence via a SLAC Crowd account. - Before requesting a Confluence account, you must be a registered member of the CDMS Collaboration. The registration page is linked here .
- Email Cartaro to create a Confluence account. Your username will be your email address as listed in the collaboration directory.
- Here is an example email:
- Hello Dr. Cartaro, I am a new CDMS member and am requesting confluence-only access.

| slac-acct | slac-acct | How to get a SLAC computer account and get access to Confluence Contact: Cartaro You should request a SLAC computing account if you plan to analyze any SuperCDMS data. To get access to Confluence, you will need have your SLAC computer account linked to Confluence (see Step 6 below). Once your SLAC computing account and Confluence accounts are linked, the same password will give you access to both. Before requesting a SLAC username and account, you must be a registered member of the CDMS Collaboration. The registration page is linked here. - Register with SLUO (SLAC Users Organization)
To register, fill in the form located at https://oraweb4.slac.stanford.edu/apex/epnprod/f?p=134. If you would like more information on SLUO, see their page here. Expand |

| - Experiment you will be working on: select CDMS
- SLAC Group/Department: "FPD: SuperCryo Dark Matter Search"
- Spokesperson/Sponsor/Supervisor: Richard Partridge
- Time spent at SLAC: Meaning "How much time do you plan to spend physically at SLAC?" and generally the answer is <10%, unless you have a specific role in the collaboration that requires your presence at SLAC for long periods.

When the registration is complete you will receive a SLAC ID (SID) number that is needed for requesting a computer account. Take your trainings as indicated in the SLUO welcome email but disregard the instructions on how to apply for a SLAC computer account. It contains a protected link and it would not get your account setup properly for CDMS work. INSTEAD, fill out this computer account request form and send the form to the CDMS computer czar, Cartaro, or the SLAC supervisor, R. Partridge. If you do not receive feedback within 2-3 working days please contact Tina or Richard. Expand |

title | SLAC computing form details |

| - Requestor information: leave blank
- SID #: This is found in the e-mail confirming the creation of your SLUO account (see above)
- New Account Type: request both Unix and Windows accounts
- SLAC e-mailbox: It is really your choice but whatever you choose be sure to read emails from SLAC. If you work primarily at another institution, you can select None; you can still receive e-mails at USERNAME@slac.stanford.edu, they will simply be forwarded to your primary e-mail account; otherwise, MS Exchange or Unix should probably be selected on the basis of your preferred e-mail client.
- Requested User ID: This will be your username at SLAC and your SLAC email address, if you choose to have one (username@slac.stanford.edu). Generally some combination of your last name and possibly your first name or initial would be best – this will make it easier for other users to identify who you actually are from files that you create or edit. Usernames may contain digits 0-9, lower-case letters a-z, and the special character "-". Must begin with a lower-case letter a-z. Must not be shorter than 3 or longer than 8 characters.
- Signature: No signature is needed. You will electronically sign later in the process.
- Authorization: leave blank

Follow directions for changing the default password(s) as soon as possible. Move on to Working with SLAC Computing Systems (confluence access required - see Step 6) to test out your new account. You should have completed Cyber Security Basics training at the moment of SLUO registration. If that is not the case you'll have 5 days to complete it once your accounts are activated. You will also need to take periodic cyber security refresher courses. Email notifications will be sent to you as reminder. Failing to take the training when due will result in the account locking, pending completion of the course. Once you have your SLAC computer account, you still need to get access to the CDMS Confluence space. Send an e-mail to Tina or confluence-admin@slac.stanford.edu asking for access to the CDMS group space on Confluence.
