To provide faster transfers of data from ARC services, ARC will be decommissioning the Flux-Xfer servers on January 9, 2023. You will need to update how you migrate your data.
For everyone who uses ARC storage services, especially Data Den users: This message is VERY important! This change includes the use of scp from Flux-Xfer, as well as the Globus endpoint umich#flux. Any shared endpoints that you have created on umich#flux will be automatically migrated to a new Globus collection on January 9. Those who use Data Den should take special interest in Item 1 listed below.
Action item – Use the new endpoints
- If you currently use globus and umich#flux to access your Locker or Data Den volume, you should use the Globus Collection ‘UMich ARC Locker Non-Sensitive Volume Collection’ for Locker, and the Globus Collection ‘UMich ARC Data Den Non-Sensitive Volume Collection’ for Data Den.
- If you currently use globus and umich#flux to access your Turbo volumes, you should use the Globus Collection ‘UMich ARC Turbo Non-Sensitive Volume Collection’.
- If you currently use globus and umich#flux to access other storage volumes, you should use the Globus Collection ‘umich#greatlakes’.
- If you currently use scp on flux-xfer to copy data to/from Turbo, you should use ‘globus-xfer1.arc-ts.umich.edu’.
User guide
- Visit the Globus File Transfer user guide on the ARC website for any refreshers on how to use Globus.
