1. Environmental variables for Java WS Core

Table 1. Globus standard environment variables

Name Value Description Comments
GLOBUS_LOCATION<path>The <path> is the root location of the Java WS Core installation. Must be an absolute path. Required
GLOBUS_TCP_PORT_RANGE<min,max>The <min,max> is the minimum and maximum port range for TCP server sockets (useful for systems behind firewalls). For example, if set, the notification sink on the client will be started within that port range. Optional
GLOBUS_TCP_SOURCE_PORT_RANGE<min,max>The <min,max> is the minimum and maximum port range for TCP outgoing sockets (useful for systems behind firewalls). Optional
GLOBUS_UDP_SOURCE_PORT_RANGE<min,max>The <min,max> is the minimum and maximum port range for UDP outgoing sockets (useful for systems behind firewalls). Optional
GLOBUS_HOSTNAME<host>The <host> is either a hostname or ip address. The host ip address under which the container and services will be exposed. Optional

Table 2. Launch script specific environment variables

Name Value Description Comments
GLOBUS_OPTIONS<arguments> The <arguments> are arbitrary arguments that can be passed to the JVM. See below for a detailed list of supported options.Optional
JAVA_HOME<path>The <path> is the root location of the JVM installation. If set, the JVM from that installation will be used. Otherwise, the first one found in path will be used. Optional
CLASSPATH<classpath>This environment property is ignored by launch scripts. Ignored

Table 3. Options supported by the GLOBUS_OPTIONS environment property

Name Value Description
-Dorg.globus.wsrf.proxy.portintThis property specifies the port number of the proxy server. The proxy server must run on the same machine as the container. This setting will cause the service address to have the port of the proxy instead of the container (only applies to code that uses the ServiceHost or AddressingUtils API.
-Dorg.globus.wsrf.container.server.idstringThis property specifies the server id. The server id is used to uniquely identify each container instance. For example, each container gets its own persistent directory based on the server id. By default the standalone container will store the persistent resources under the ~/.globus/persisted/<ip>-<containerPort> directory. While in Tomcat the ~/.globus/persisted/<ip>-<webApplicationName> directory will be used instead. This property overwrites the default server id and therefore indirectly controls which storage directory is used by the container. If set, the container will store the persisted resources under ~/.globus/persisted/<server.id>/ instead. Note, that if somehow multiple containers running as the same user on the same machine end up with the same server id / persistent directory they might overwrite each other's persistent data.
-Dorg.globus.wsrf.container.persistence.dirdirectoryThis property specifies the base directory that will be used for storing the persistent resources. This property overwrites the default (~/.globus/persisted/) base directory assumed by the container.

Any JVM options can also be passed using the GLOBUS_OPTIONS environment property.
