What is Globus Connect Personal (GCP)?

GCP allows you to create a Globus collection on your laptop your lab’s server. You can then interact with other Globus collections and easily (and reliably) move and share data from your laptop or lab server to other collections such as the University of Oregon - Talapas2 collection.

Install the Globus Connect Personal software:

  1. Navigate to https://www.globus.org/globus-connect-personal

  2. On the right select download for your platform of choice (the machine type that hosts your lab data, or a workstation/laptop you use). Windows, Mac and Linux are all supported

  3. Install and configure your globus endpoint using the instructions on the download page. You can use your UO credentials at this point.
