Obtaining OSG Credentials for the MCDRD VO

First, you must join the Muon Collider Detector Research and Development Virtual Organization. This will give you access to MCD grid computing resources.

As of March 23, 2013, DOEGrids CA will stop issuing new certificates as the transition to OSG completes. For more information see the Fermilab PKI Transition page.

Follow the instructions on the Fermilab documentation for obtaining a personal OSG certificate as a Fermilab staff or user. You will be joining theMCDRD VO, but when you fill out the OIM User Certificate Request Form choose Fermilab as the VO.

Upon submitting the OIM User Certificate Request form you should receive mail confirming the opening of your request ticket. Shortly thereafter it should be confirmed, allowing you to download the ticket from the OIM ticket page.

Import the ticket into your browser (In Chrome, go to Settings -> Advanced Settings... -> HTTP/SSL -> Manage Certificates... -> Import...). Now you should be able to access the MCDRD VO registration page. Fill in the form on this page and submit. The request will be submitted to the VO's administrator and you should get a confirmation email when the submission is made and when the request is approved.
