Starting to work with the FATMEN system

Before you can start to work with the FATMEN system, your group must have been entered into the FATMEN system as detailed in the installation guide section of this manual. This involves

• Creating a set of ORACLE or SQL/DS tables for your experiment N.B.This is only necessary if you wish to have the FATMEN catalogued backed up into a relational database. This option is typically only used at CERN.
• Creating a service machine to manage the FATMEN database
• Registering this machine with the FATMEN master service machine

To get this done, just send a mail to JAMIE@CERNVM.
