From Jaime @ Scinet:

1) Prerequisites: add install/configure the globus toolkit from this
page
https://docs.globus.org/globus-connect-server-installation-guide/#install_section

2) check that globus transfer authenticates and accesses contents from
/tmp (for instance), before any DSI installation.

3) fix the typo in /usr/local/girdftp_hpss_dsi, to /usr/local/gridftp_hpss_dsi

4) fix the path /usr/local/gridftp_hpss_dsi/lib to be
/usr/local/gridftp_hpss_dsi. The installation does not create the
'lib' folder. All libs are already under /usr/local/gridftp_hpss_dsi

5) add verbose to runtime linker: $ sudo ldconfig -v

be sure to point out that the command below should run
on the HPSS core server, and the resulting keytab copied to the
globus/DSI node (which onle has a very slim set of hpss tools, no
hpss_unix_keytab):

6) $ /opt/hpss/bin/hpss_unix_keytab -f /var/hpss/etc/gridftp.keytab
add hpssftp

HPSS_API_DEBUG_FILE is opened for append, must exist, and must be writable by the end user.
