If you do not, you can associate one with your account from many of the major universities in the world via the “CI Logon” service. If you already have a DN from another source, you can use that. To create a DN, you need to log in from some authoritative source that can verify your identity, typically your university or employer. You can generate a DN instantly for free. In order for Globus to know who you are when you move data in and out of the CEP portal from your computer, or between any other pair of systems, Globus needs a unique identifier for you, which is called a “Distinguished Name”, or DN. Step 1: Retrieve and Associate a Distinguished Name (DN) with Your TACC Account If you use a personal account, you will encounter an issue with the transfer endpoint (Frontera, Stampede2, Corral, Ranch, etcetera).
PLEASE NOTE: You must use your institution’s credentials and not your personal Google account when setting up Globus. Step 2: Activate Your Desktop/Laptop as a Globus Endpoint and Transfer Files.Step 1: Retrieve and Associate a Distinguished Name (DN) with Your TACC Account.Follow this one-time process to set up the Globus file transfer capability. To start using Globus, you need to do two things: Generate a unique identifier for all Globus services, and enroll the machine you are transferring data to/from with Globus (this can be your personal laptop or desktop, or a server to which you have access). Once you are set up, you can use Globus not only for transfers to and from the portal, but also to access other cyberinfrastructure resources at TACC and around the world. Several steps will need to be repeated each time you set up a new computer to use Globus for the portal. Most of the steps you are only required to do once when you set up Globus to use for the first time. To get these benefits there are a few setup steps you have to do beyond the normal Data Depot transfer process. It is reliable for large numbers of directories and files, as it can automatically fail and restart itself, and will only notify you when the transfers are completed successfully. Globus is fast, for large volumes of data, as it uses multiple network sockets simultaneously to transfer data. Globus supplies high speed, reliable, asynchronous transfers to the portal.
