EMI Accounts Management

Several CERN tools are used in EMI, for example:

• Twiki for project internal webpage
• PPT for effort reporting
• SVN and Savannah for source code version management
• Indico for event management
• CDS for public document server (not yet publicly available at the time of this writing)

Consequently, CERN provides all EMI project members with 'EMI-specific' CERN account. The procedure for project members requiring access to these tools is as follows:

1. Project member or benefiaciary supervisor sends request to emi-po@cern.ch. All requests must be accompanied by a scanned copy of the project member's identity card or passport
2. For project members who have not been registered at CERN before, the EMI PO will register the member as an 'external' member of CERN in the human resource database
3. For all project members, newly registered or not, a new 'EMI association' is added by the EMI PO to their human resource record
4. For all project members, CERN computing accounts are either created (for newly registered members) or re-activated (for dormant accounts)
