Renamed and rebuilt Globus install using the following tip from HP:

#################################################
Build the Globus Toolkit from source or binary bundles following the instructions available from Globus. After the build completes:

* Set the $GLOBUS_HOSTNAME environment variable to the GCHN (as determined above):

(sh) $ GLOBUS_HOSTNAME=host.dom.ain; export GLOBUS_HOSTNAME
(csh) % setenv GLOBUS_HOSTNAME host.dom.ain

Then run either "make install" (for GT4) or the Globus post-install script (for GT2). Setting this environment variable is necessary because many configuration files created during the post-install process have hardcoded host names (e.g., some job managers and MDS configuration files). By setting $GLOBUS_HOSTNAME before the installation step, these hardcoded host names will be correctly initialized to the GCHN.
* Request the Host and LDAP certificates, being sure to use the GCHN.
* Use env(1) to set $GLOBUS_HOSTNAME for Globus services launched out of inetd(8). For example:

gsiftp stream tcp nowait root /usr/bin/env \
env GLOBUS_HOSTNAME=host.dom.ain LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/globus/active/gtk/lib \
/globus/active/gtk/sbin/globus-gridftp-server -i
