  2. you’ll receive a certificate bundle (.p12) which you can import into your browser

  3. Convert to PEM Keypair

    Copy the certificate to a file named myCert.p12 to the computer where you will run voms-proxy-init.

    Extract your certificate (which contains the public key) and the private key:

    • Extract the certificate:
      openssl pkcs12 -in myCert.p12 -clcerts -nokeys -out $HOME/.globus/usercert.pem

    • Extract the encrypted private key:
      openssl pkcs12 -in myCert.p12 -nocerts -out $HOME/.globus/userkey.pem

    • You must set the mode on your userkey.pem file to read/write only by the owner, otherwise voms-proxy-init will not use it:

      chmod 600 $HOME/.globus/userkey.pem
chmod 600 $HOME/.globus/usercert.pem

  4. If you have lcgui05 or similar, copy the usercert and userkey pem files to ~/.globus

  5. run “voms-proxy-init --voms dteam --valid 96:00“

  6. you can now use xrdcp and gfal-copy to access /dteam from any echo endpoint:
    e.g. rdr.echo.stfc.ac.uk (prod echo) , ceph-dev-gw1.gridpp.rl.ac.uk (preprod echo)

    1. copy in via gridftp

      globus-url-copy file:///home/tier1/[USERNAME]/test_file gsiftp://<url>//dteam:scratch/test_file

      (globus-url-copy requires a full path for the local file)

      or xrootd:

      xrdcp test_file root://<url>//dteam:scratch/test_file

      then you can stat the file in echo:

      xrdfs <url> stat dteam:scratch/test_file

      and finally copy it out:

      xrdcp root://<url>//dteam:scratch/test_file test_file_out_xrd

      and/or copy out via gridftp

      globus-url-copy gsiftp://<url>//dteam:scratch/test_file file:///home/tier1/[USERNAME]/test_file_out_gftp
