Tips for MC contacts

Hello!

I have been an MC contact for EGM since 2021. If you recently started as a MC contact for EGM, you will find very useful tools an links in this webpage.

Registering as an MC contact

  1. First, register as a "user" on the McM website by visiting this link.
  2. After registering, send an email to PdmV at cmstalk+pnr@dovecotmta.cern.ch requesting an increase in your role from "user" to "generator contact" on the development version of the McM website (mcm-dev).
  3. Once your role is updated, you will gain access to the website. You will then receive a questionnaire that you need to fill out before starting as an official MC contact.
  • For details on placing requests, MC tools, naming conventions, and other aspects of MC production, visit the MC production GitBook.
  • Start with this introduction page.
  • When filling out the questionnaire, refer to the MC contact section.
  • An MC contact is required to attend the MC coordination meeting on Wednesday at 15:00 (CERN time). Links to past meetings and other useful information can be found in the TWiki, or in the Indico link.
  • This GitLab issues page is used to handle issues faces by MC contacts.

I find it convenient to search for different things using wildcards in html links. The following are a few examples.
