Getting started on SCS2 (the successor to SCS1)

After having used the SCS1 environment for validation, testing, skill building and having provided generous access to the SCS community, it will no longer be taken care of well by PlusServer as of January 2025 and can thus be expected to run out of capacity and fail in other ways. It will be switched off in February 2025. SCS1 is replaced by the newer SCS2 environment that is maintained by PlusServer as reference environment and PS has agreed to provide community resources on SCS2. All SCS community activities that continue to be needed should move to SCS2.

Access to SCS2 is handled in the same way as to SCS1.
