How to get access to Confluence only
Contact: Concetta (Tina) Cartaro
Confluence is widely used by the CDMS collaboration, so if you are working on the experiment you need access to Confluence. If you don't plan to analyze data, you can get access to Confluence via a SLAC cloud account.
- Before requesting a Confluence account, you must be a registered member of the CDMS Collaboration. The registration page is linked here .
- Go to this sign-up form
- Sign up for the CDMS group
How to get a SLAC computer account and get access to Confluence
Contact: Concetta (Tina) 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). 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.
When the registration is complete you will receive a SLAC ID (SID) number that is needed for requesting a computer account. You should disregard the email instructions on the top of the SLAC-account request form sent to you by SLUO.
Apply for a SLAC computer account (apply for linux and windows)
Fill, print, sign, scan the computer account request form at http://www2.slac.stanford.edu/comp/slacwide/account/account.html
Send the form to the CDMS computer czar, Concetta (Tina) Cartaro, or the SLAC supervisor, Richard Partridge.If you do not receive feedback within 2-3 working days please contact Tina or Richard.
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.
- Once your accounts are activated you have 30 days to complete Cyber Security Basics course online (windows password required).
Failing to do so will result in the account locking, pending completion of the course. You will also need to take periodic cyber security refresher courses. Accounts that do not stay current with cyber security training will be deactivated. Once you have your SLAC computer account, you still need to get access to the CDMS Confluence space. Send an e-mail to Tina Cartaro or confluence-admin@slac.stanford.edu asking for access to the CDMS group space on Confluence.
