Reporting troubles

For any issue, please contact the Tier2 admins over Slack or Email by making a ticket. Make sure you specify the following information:

  1. What exact commands you ran and in which environment?
  2. What did you expect?
  3. What sort of error messages do you get?

There is a “helpdesk” operating on slack caltech-cms.slack.com #tier2 channel, in case of very urgent issues, feel free to ask there. If possible, we aim to ask questions publicly, to prevent overloading admins with the same questions in private.
