h1. Obtain the Personal Certificate for Grid usage

*Before you start:*

*PLEASE MAKE SURE YOU ARE NOT USING A PUBLIC COMPUTER.

YOUR GRID IDENTITY WILL BE STORED IN THE BROWSER YOU USE FOR THIS.*

*NOTE: You don't need the certificate if you plan to submit jobs in local clusters only, i.e. dione, titan or pleione.*

Here are the step-by-step instructions for obtaining your own certificate:

# Go to https://www.digicert.com/sso/

# Type in your institution (Turku in our case, it will autocomplete)

# Login using your HAKA username and password

# If you get an error about missing attributes, SAML error or some other error after providing correct userID

  and password for UTU SSO login, complain to our University IT center: "Report problem of obtaining Personal certificate":mailto:helpdesk@utu.fi?subject=Problem%20obtaining%20Grid%20personal%20certificate&body=Obtaining%20Grid%20personal%20certificate%20from%20DigiCert%20does%20not%20function%3F

# Depending on your institution, you might be asked to confirm to forward the information to the TCS portal.

# In "Choose a product" select "Grid Premium"

# If you have a pre-generated CSR, paste it into its window.

# Press "Request certificate"

# The certificate will be generated and automatically imported into the browser.
