Extramural:

  • Performed a successful transfer of larger files between Dallas, Tarrant, and Atlanta sites.

    • ***Issue that will be discussed: A server not allowing incoming connections in the ephemeral port range will have the following restrictions:
    • While it will be possible to make GridFTP control connections if port 2811/tcp is open, it will not possible to actually get or put files. In other words the globus-url-copy will hang until CTRL+C is pressed.
