About FTS

The File Transfer Service (FTS) is the lowest-level data movement service defined in the gLite architecture. It is responsible for moving sets of files from one site to another, allowing participating sites to control the network resource usage. It is designed for point to point movement of physical files. The FTS has dedicated interfaces for managing the network resource and to display statistics of ongoing transfers. Optionally, the FTS supports Logical File Names (LFNs), i.e. is able to provide catalog lookup and registration.

More information on FTS is available at FTS home page

About FTM

The File Transfer Monitor node queries the FTS database currently performs a number of functions.

• A web page summary is created at hourly, daily and weekly intervals. This is performed by the glite-transfer-monitor-report package.
• Two summary files are created of recent transfers from the database. This is performed by the glite-transfer-monitor-gridview package.
• These summary files are published into gridview via the gridview packages. This is done by the gridview-wsclient-fts package.
