## Support
Support can be asked through:
* [PSI Service Now](https://psi.service-now.com/psisp)
* E-Mail: <merlin-admins@lists.psi.ch>

### PSI Service Now
**[PSI Service Now](https://psi.service-now.com/psisp)**: is the official tool for opening incident requests.
* PSI HelpDesk will redirect the incident to the corresponding department, or
* you can always assign it directly by checking the box `I know which service is affected` and providing the service name `Local HPC Resources (e.g. Merlin) [CF]` (just type in `Local` and you should get the valid completions).
### Contact Merlin Administrators
**E-Mail <merlin-admins@lists.psi.ch>**
* This is the official way to contact Merlin Administrators for discussions which do not fit well into the incident category.
Do not hesitate to contact us for such cases.
