Globus is an online service that allows transferring data between different locations.  To use Globus you need to sign in. There are different options to sign in, including using a institutional identity (e.g., SLAC username), sign in with Google or creating a free Globus account (Globus ID). The Institutional login using SLAC requires a valid SLAC Windows account, a users unix account would not work (however the unix account is required to authenticate to the LCLS endpoint). If you would like to use the SLAC Institutional login but have no Windows account please contact data-management.                                       

Once logged in, users can request data transfers, view progress on existing transfers, manage transfer requests, and view history.

Globus endpoint at SLAC/LCLS

Since 2021 LCLS is using the S3DF for data storage and processing. The Globus endpoint for the S3DF is slac#s3df_globus5. Older data that are still hosted on the old file systems are accessible by the lcls_pcds endpoint.

 Access to both is granted with the users SLAC has several Globus endpoints, including one for LCLS (slac#lcls). To obtain access the Globus LCLS endpoint, please send an email to data-management. Once enabled to use Globus with LCLS, the user can use their SLAC Unix username/password to authenticate with endpoint slac#lcls.
