If you have DESY credentials to access the Belle II collaborative services such as confluence, you were automatically included in the [[doc:BI.Belle II Membership Management System.WebHome]] (B2MMS). If not please refer to [[doc:BI.Belle II Newcomers.Belle II User Registration.WebHome]]. With your registration you will be included in the [[doc:BI.Belle II Membership Management System.WebHome]] (B2MMS).

{{confluence_tip title="Who is the representative of my institution (IR)?"}}

154

Please ask your colleagues. We might also help you by email at __[[b2-helpdesk_AT_belle2.org>>url:http://b2-helpdesk_AT_belle2.org||shape="rect"]]__.

155

156

157

{{confluence_tip title="How long does it take to get a Belle II membership?"}}

158

Your membership request triggers an approval workflow which involves the representative of your institution (IR), and the IB - if you are physicist / faculty/staff - followed by the creation of your DESY credentials (account name / password). The entire process is usually finished within one workday but obviously depends on the availability of people.

Please refer to the official [[Belle II members list>>url:http://belle.kek.jp/secured2/secretary/memberlist/list2.cgi||shape="rect"]] (protected).

If your affiliation with your current Belle II institution ends, e.g. after finishing a thesis, your current Belle II institution representative (IR) will set your Belle II membership to 'Expired'. Subsequently your DESY account for the Belle II collaborative services and tools will expired with a grace period of one month as well. See [[doc:BI.Belle II Membership Management System.WebHome]] for information if you change to another Belle II institution. Do not register again, your record remains in the system.

167

168

169

{{confluence_tip title="How do I reactivate my membership and account?"}}

170

If you have been a Belle II member you still have a record in the B2MMS and an account in the DESY registry. If expired both can be reactivated. Please **do not request new** ones but ask your IR to reactivate your membership. Your account will then be activated automatically. Give half a working day for expired accounts.

171

172

173

{{confluence_tip title="My membership expires but I am still a Belle II author?"}}

174

The date until you are a Belle II author is maintained in the B2MMS (**Authorship End Date**). After your membership expired your account can be made be valid until that date to enter [[authors.belle2.org>>url:https://authors.belle2.org||shape="rect"]]. See [[doc:BI.Belle II Authorship.WebHome]] and contact contact the Belle II helpdesk.

175

176

177

{{confluence_tip title="My membership category must cahnge as I will now work as a master, physicist -term limited, faculty/staff member."}}

178

Please change the membership category in your B2MMS record in [[b2mms.belle2.org>>url:https://b2mms.belle2.org||shape="rect"]] . Your IR will have to approve your changes to become valid. See [[doc:BI.Belle II Membership Management System.WebHome]].

People who work at or/and are **employed by DESY** must contact their **group administrator at DESY** or see the user consulting office (**UCO**) at DESY to have their password reset.

Your DESY account is a 4-8 character string; **case insensitive**. The DESY account is not an email address! We recommend to use parts of your last name.

A **Grid user certificate** and the membership in the **VO** '[[belle'>>url:https://voms.cc.kek.jp:8443/voms/belle||rel="nofollow" shape="rect" class="external-link"]] is strongly recommended though.

Your credentials (account name / password) are good to login to DESY by //ssh// to [[bastion.desy.de>>url:http://bastion.desy.de||shape="rect"]]. You will see your AFS home dir at DESY (DESY.DE).

If you were able to or are still able to login to //[[bastion.desy.de>>url:http://bastion.desy.de||shape="rect"]]// , you got DESY credentials earlier which can be used for Belle II. Contact [[b2-helpdesk_AT_belle2.org>>url:http://b2-helpdesk_AT_belle2.org||shape="rect"]] . A new registration attempt via the portal would fail.

{{confluence_tip title="How to test my Grid user certificate in ~~/.globus ?"}}

488

Grid users usually have exported their Grid user certificate to ~~/.globus to use it with Grid commands such as 'voms-proxy-init', 'dirac-proxy-init', or 'gb2_proxy_init'. The following commands may help to investigate the situation.

The directory:

~> cd ~~/.globus

~> ls -l

-r~-~-r~-~-r~-~- 1 usercert.pem

497

498

-r~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~- 1 userkey.pem

\\

Checking if public (cert) and private (key) match:

\\

(% class="code" %)

(((

~> openssl x509 -noout -modulus -in usercert.pem | openssl md5

509

~> openssl rsa -noout -modulus -in userkey.pem | openssl md5

)))

\\

Checking subject, issuer, and validity dates:

515

516

~> openssl x509 -subject -issuer -email -dates -noout -in ~~/.globus/usercert.pem

\\

Recreating a single file with public and private key to be improted into a broser:

521

522

~> openssl pkcs12 -export -out my_cert.p12 -inkey userkey.pem -in usercert.pem
