If someone is already on the computer, DO NOT LOG THEM OFF!

  • Some testing programs have schedules for use of the test machines; if so,
call  whoever
  • check the Confluence signup page, or contact whoever is coordinating the schedule
, or check the signup sheet near the test machine
  • .
    If no one is coordinating the test machine schedule, your options are:
    • Try another computer (if there are multiple test machines)
    • Contact the person and ask them when they will be finished (user ID usually equals email ID)
      • Contact the Library Helpdesk if the account is an administrator account, such as smsla, or a DIIT staff member.
    • Try again later
