If you need grid access on the T2, please follow all the steps below:

First time certificate

  1. Get a certificate (new). If you already have a CERN grid certificate, you can temporarily use it. But for accounting reasons, we need you to get a Belgian certificate
  2. Extract your certificate from your browser: Chrome | Firefox
  3. Put your certificate on the UIs
  4. Register to the CMS VO
  5. Check if your certificate is ok on SiteDB. Note the DN.
  6. Send a mail to the T2B support (grid_adminATlistserv.vub.iihe.ac.be) with your DN in order to have write access on the T2.
  7. Check that your certificate is the only one registered on the CERN website.
  8. Check if everything works fine on the mX machines

Certificate renewal

As we switched the company who provides us with certificates, you need to follow the 'First time certificate' to have a new one, this until December 2016 at least.
