WARNING: We no longer accept grid certificates signed by the Globus CA.

To use these services you need to e-mail systems@lcrc.anl.gov your Grid Certificate/subject. The correct subject can be generated by running the following command: 

grid-cert-info -subject
If you don't have a Grid Certificate you may request one from:

DOE Science Grid Certificate Authority: http://www.doegrids.org/pages/cert-request.htm We currently accept certificates from both of the above CA.

All Globus services on Jazz run on the Globus server jglobus.lcrc.anl.gov.

Using Globus from Jazz

To access Globus services and software while you are logged on to Jazz add "+globus" to your .soft file after the "@default" line. To activate .soft changes type "resoft" from the shell, or logout and log back in.

Examples

  • A fork jobmanager process that queries the PBS queue: 
    globusrun -s -r jglobus.lcrc.anl.gov/jobmanager-fork \
   '&(executable=/usr/pbs/bin/qstat)(jobtype=single)(maxtime=10)'

Job id           Name             User             Time Use S Queue

  • Submitting a PBS script you already have on Jazz: 
    	
globusrun -o -r jglobus.lcrc.anl.gov/jobmanager-pbs \ 
   '&(executable=/<jazz_path_to_script>/<script_name>)
     (jobtype=single)
     (maxtime=<minutes to run>)
     (count=<number of nodes>)
     (project=<your project>)'
  • Using globus-url-copy to transfer a file to Jazz (you should be on the remote system): 
    globus-url-copy file:<remote_path_to_file>/<file> \
   gsiftp://jglobus.lcrc.anl.gov/~/<file_on_jazz>
  • Submitting a job with a specific project to run on multiple hosts on Jazz: 
    globusrun -o -r jglobus.lcrc.anl.gov/jobmanager-pbs \
   '&(executable=/bin/hostname)(jobtype=multiple)(count=5)\
     (project=<project_name>)'
