To prepare a Globus endpoint:

1. If you do not already have a shareable Globus endpoint, contact NCIDataVault@mail.nih.gov and request one.

   When people send messages to the NCI Data Vault inbox, requesting an endpoint, Udit usually asks them various questions. I asked about including those questions here, but Sunita said most of them have never seen this page. People usually see this page after the DME team has talked with them.

2. Log into Globus at the following site:
   http://www.globus.org

3. If you do not already have a guest collection in Globus, create one:

   Expand title Instructions to Create a Guest Collection In the Globus File Manager, open the side bar and click Endpoints. On the Endpoints page, search for and select NIH HPC Data Transfer. This is a public endpoint.  On the NIH HPC Data Transfer page, click Collections. On the Collections tab, click Add a Guest Collection.  On the Create New Guest Collection page, browse to or specify the path to the directory where you want to save your data. Click Create Share.

4. Share your Globus endpoint:

   1. In the Globus File Manager, navigate to the list of endpoints by opening the side bar, clicking Endpoints, and then clicking Shareable by You. 

      

   2. Select the endpoint you want to use. Access the sharing configuration for that endpoint by clicking Permissions. 

      

   3. Add permissions by clicking Add Permissions - Share With. In the Share With field, select the option to share with a group. Click Select a Group.

      

   4. Search all groups for "HPCDME-" and select the appropriate Globus group for the DME tier you intend to use: 

      • Production: HPCDME-PROD-App-Accts-Pool-FNLCR

      • UAT: HPCDME-DEV-App-Accts-Pool-FNLCR

      

   5. Select the appropriate permission for the selected group: If you intend to download data from DME to the Globus endpoint, select the write permission. 

      

   6. Click Add Permission. The system adds the HPCDME Globus group to the list for the current share.
