The display name will be used to identify this endpoint to users when they access it for the first time. Adding other administrators helps your organization avoid losing administrative control should any one administrator leave your organization.įrom the Add… menu for the project click Add a new Globus Connect Server and fill out the form. Use the Add… menu to add other appropriate users in your organization as administrators of the project. Keep it separate from any other projects you might have. This project will be used to track your Globus Connect Server registrations. You can use any linked identity, however the client you are creating must exist for the lifetime of the GCSv5 endpoint so consider carefully which account to use.Ĭlick Register a new Globus Connect Server v5.Ĭlick Add another project and fill out the form. Log into the Globus Developers Console,. Globus Connect Server version 5 supports two types of collections: Access to a collection is authenticated with Globus Auth-issued OAuth2 access tokens, with data access policies defined in the collection itself. In Globus Connect Server version 5, a collection is a named set of files (or blobs), hierarchically organized in folders, associated with a specific storage gateway. A connected storage system may have multiple storage gateways.Ĭollection: Collections provide the data access interfaces, allowing access via HTTPS (client/server access), GridFTP (asynchronous bulk transfer), and REST API (for advanced operations). A storage gateway is a named, discoverable interface by which authorized users can create and manage collections on a connected storage system. Storage gateway: Storage gateways provide the storage access policies for the endpoint’s connected storage systems. (E.g., POSIX file system, Google Drive.) You may configure multiple storage connectors for a single endpoint, allowing simultaneous access to all connectors. Storage connector: A storage connector allows the endpoint to use a particular type of storage. The endpoint provides the interface for server management and configuration. Each server or DTN is referred to as Node. A single endpoint may optionally include multiple Data Transfer Nodes (DTNs) or servers.
