Access Requirements

New CERN Users

• New users should follow the CERN Neutrino Platform (CENF, Yes F) registration procedure at http://cenf.web.cern.ch/basic/registration-procedure.
  • If you come to CERN this gives you an lxplus/linux computing account which you need to access np04 computing.
  • You need to get an external account if you do not come to CERN.

Access to NP04 resources

• Once you have an account or you have an existing linux account at CERN:
  • Request access to the np04-t0comp-users egroup on the CERN egroups page (https://egroups.cern.ch). This also adds you to the np-comp linux group.
  • Request access to the CENF Twiki so you can edit documentation. Go to the e-group main page (https://egroups.cern.ch) and subscribe to the e-group CENF-Computing .
  • Request on np04 linux account in the np04 computing cluster at EHN1. (This is not the same as the neutplatform farm.)
    • Send email to np04-onl-admins@cernNOSPAMPLEASE.ch from your CERN account. The list is closed to offsite emails to eliminate spam.
  • To become a daq developer with access to gitlab, JIRA, alerts, etc, subscribe to the e-group np04-daq-dev .
  • In order to receive notifications from the logbook subscribe to e-group: pdsp-elog-messages .
• For np04 cluster access from outside CERN you must go through the lxplus service first.
  • kinit you@CERN.CH
  • ssh you@lxplus
• SITE ACCESS
  • Go to http://cern.ch/adams and request access to EHN1-NP. Reason can be NP04 DAQ work.
• Access to the Cryostat Roof
  • Go to Impact -> Create Activity. In the 'Location' field, please use NP-Roof-NP04 and in 'Access points' use YDALC01-NP04 (se attachment). The impact should be linked automatically to the door access control.
