345- (Optional) Installing a GridFTP Server
346- --------------------------------------
347-
348- The Globus GridFTP server can be installed alongside an XRootD storage element to provide GridFTP-based access to the
349- storage.
350-
351- !!! note "See Also"
352- OSG has extensive documentation on setting up a GridFTP server; this section is an
353- abbreviated version documenting the special steps needed for XRootD integration.
354- You may also find the following useful:
355-
356- - [Basic GridFTP Install](../gridftp.md). Additionally covers service planning topics.
357- - [Load-balanced GridFTP Install](../load-balanced-gridftp.md). Covers the creation of
358- a load-balanced GridFTP service using multiple servers.
359-
360- Prior to following this installation guide, verify the host certificates and networking is configured correctly as in
361- the [ basic GridFTP install] ( ../gridftp.md ) .
362-
363- ### Installation
364-
365- GridFTP support for XRootD-based storage is provided by the ` osg-gridftp-xrootd ` meta-package:
366-
367- ``` console
368- root@host # yum install osg-gridftp-xrootd
369- ```
370-
371- ### Configuration
372-
373- For information on how to configure authentication for your GridFTP installation, please refer to the
374- [ configuring authentication section of the GridFTP guide] ( ../gridftp.md#configuring-authentication ) .
375-
376- Edit ` /etc/sysconfig/globus-gridftp-server ` to set ` XROOTD_VMP ` to use your XRootD redirector.
377-
378- :::bash
379- export XROOTD_VMP="redirector:1094:/local_path=/remote_path"
380-
381- !!! warning
382- The syntax of ` XROOTD_VMP ` is tricky; make sure to use the following guidance:
383-
384- - **Redirector**: The hostname and domain of the local XRootD redirector server.
385- - **local_path**: The full local path exported by the GridFTP server. For example `/mystorage/export/data/store`
386- - **remote_path**: The XRootD path that will be mounted at **local_path**.
387-
388- When ` xrootd-dsi ` is enabled, GridFTP configuration changes should go into ` /etc/xrootd-dsi/gridftp-xrootd.conf ` , not
389- ` /etc/gridftp.conf ` .
390- Sites should review any customizations made in the latter and copy them as necessary.
391-
392- You can use the FUSE mount in order to test POSIX access to xrootd in the GridFTP server.
393- You should be able to run Unix commands such as ` ls /mnt/xrootd ` and see the contents of the XRootD server.
394-
395- For log / config file locations and system services to run, see the [ basic GridFTP install] ( ../gridftp.md ) .
