SDS@hd/Registration/Institutional Membership

Confirm Employee Status at your Institution

New projects and SVs can only be requested by bwIDM members with employee status. Usually, this information is transferred form your institution to SDS@h automatically. If any issues come up, please write to the support address of your institutional it- or hpc-service. You can find some addresses below. Please add the SDS@hd support in CC (sds-hd-support@urz.uni-heidelberg.de).

• Heidelberg University
  • It's enough to directly write to the SDS@hd support.
• Tübingen University
  • Write to support@zdv.uni-tuebingen.de or hpcmaster@uni-tuebingen.de
• Ulm University
  • Please contact the helpdesk. See https://www.uni-ulm.de/einrichtungen/kiz/service-katalog/beratung-schulung-hilfe/helpdesk/

You can use the following draft:

Dear ..., 

I am an employee at <institution> and am therefore allowed to create storage projects at the research data storage SDS@hd (https://wiki.bwhpc.de/e/SDS@hd). But it seems as if the necessary attributes don't get transferred to the SDS@hd service. To be concrete, the following is needed: 
eduPersonScopedAffiliation needs to be "staff" or "employee". 
This is described for the 'SDS@hd Management Tool' at the bwIDM page: https://www.bwidm.de/dienste.php.

Best regards,
