Globus Online

Configuring Globus Online

1. Login to Globus' Web app.

   1. Click “Login” on the top right corner of the webpage.

   2. To use your UWYO organizational login, search for ‘University of Wyoming’. It should autofill as shown in the screenshot.

      Open

      

      1. Hit 'Continue' to continue setting up your globus account, then click 'Allow' as shown below to allow globus to manage your groups search data using your ID and groups, and manage transfers.

         Open

         

   3. Note that the sign up and setup may be skipped if you’ve already logged into Globus and Globus still has you cached.

2. On the left side of your browser window will be a file manager menu.

3. Select this menu then type: uw-arcc in the Collection field to pull up ARCC storage spaces you have access to. ARCC manages several data storage endpoints so be sure you pick the one associated with your storage and HPC cluster (if applicable). You may have access to multiple ARCC endpoints/collections.
   
   

   1. MedicineBow and Data-Alcova are accessible and under the GCSv5.4 endpoint name Medicine Bow

      1. MedicineBow data (/gscratch, /home, and /project) are under /cluster/medbow

      2. Alcova storage (aka new Alcova) is under path /cluster/alcova

   2. Alcova (aka the Old Alcova) is designated with the GCSv5.4 endpoint named Alcova FileSystem Access.

   3. Beartooth is designated with GCSv5.4 endpoint named TetonCreek/Beartooth.

      1. Older Beartooth storage will be available on the TetoncCreek/Beartooth Collection and clicking on the link will take you to your /~/ home directory.

         1. Putting / as the path will display all shares you have access to. You should be able to access your project, home and gscratch directories from this collection.

   4. Pathfinder is designated with GCSv5.4 endpoint named Pathfinder S3 Access. You will need to set up S3 keys for access through globus.

4. Note: Recently migrated Globus endpoints will be set as “Managed Mapped Collection (GCS)” and you should use these endpoints to access ARCC resources through Globus. If you have mapped private collections (those shared from your personal computer or elsewhere) those will be set as “Private Mapped Collections” (GCP). Older collections will be mapped as GCSv4 Shares.

5. When you get to the folder you’re looking for you can save it for future access by adding it to your bookmarks. To do that, once you’re in the folder you’re looking for click on the bookmark icon to the right of the Path text box.

    

6. When you wish to come back to your saved bookmarks, you can go to the bookmarks option on the very left side of the screen to get back to your bookmarked locations easily.

7. If you wish to copy, sink or share, select the files/folders you wish to copy, transfer or share, and click ‘Start’, and choose a location or e-mail with which to transfer or sync.

8. Click ‘Activity’ in the left pane to observe the transfer progress.
