To prepare a Globus endpoint:

  1. If you do not already have a shareable Globus endpoint, contact NCIDataVault@mail.nih.gov and request one.
  2. Log into Globus at the following site: 

    http://www.globus.org
  3. If prompted for login credentials, specify your NIH user account. 
  4. Begin the process of sharing your shareable Globus endpoint as described in the following page:

    https://docs.globus.org/how-to/share-files
  5. Specify that you want to share with a group.  
  6. Search all groups for "HPCDME-" and select the appropriate Globus group for your DOC, as indicated in the following table: 

    DOCGroup for the Production Tier of DME Group for the UAT Tier of DME
    FNLCRHPCDME-PROD-App-Accts-Pool-FNLCRHPCDME-DEV-App-Accts-Pool-FNLCR
    HiTIFHPCDME-PROD-App-Accts-Pool-HITIF HPCDME-DEV-App-Accts-Pool-HITIF
    CCBRHPCDME-PROD-App-Accts-Pool-CCBR HPCDME-DEV-App-Accts-Pool-CCBR
    CCR_SBLHPCDME-PROD-App-Accts-Pool-CCR_SBL HPCDME-DEV-App-Accts-Pool-CCR_SBL
    All OthersHPCDME-PROD-App-Accts-Pool-Default HPCDME-DEV-App-Accts-Pool-Default
  7. Select the appropriate permission for the selected group:
  8. Click Add Permission. The system adds the HPCDME Globus group to the list for the current share.  
  9. Each time you need to download data from DME, perform the following steps to copy the shared endpoint UUID:

    1. Navigate to the list of endpoints that are sharable by you. The shared endpoint you have just created is available in that list with the following description:

      Shared Endpoint on <name of shareable Globus endpoint>
    2. Click the shared endpoint link. A page appears with details about that endpoint. 
    3. Next to the Endpoint UUID field, click the copy icon. 

Now you can upload or download data as described in the following pages:
