How do I, as a facility manager, add a person to the facility's file share?

Facility staff contacts ChemIT with the following specific information:

  • Specify which research group user belongs to. Confirm it already exists, or request one get created, as appropriate.
    • If not in a research group which should exist, specify "OtherUsers".

Managers can add people directly to existing groups. Follow these steps:

  1. Login to <https://manage.ad.cornell.edu/adadmin> with your ADM account. You should be able to add users as needed. Let Chemistry IT know if you have troubles accessing this interface.
    • NMR: In the upper left hand corner, just search AS-CHM-NMR-Share and you should be presented with the list of all NMR groups.
      • Note that NMR's Linux accounts are not done through ChemIT. Thus, those NMR instrument accounts are provisioned directly by Ivan, in NMR. ChemIT does not need to know about

    • NMR: Within NMR's fileshare (CIT's SFS), use own ADM account to create a folder with group's folder, using user's NetID as the folder's name.

    • XRay: Within XRay's fileshare (CIT's SFS), use own ADM account to create a folder with group's folder, using user's NetID as the folder's name.

NOTE: Chemistry IT still needs to make new groups in Active Directory and the new folders. Therefore please contact us directly for those requests. Thank you!
