DRS is distributed with the Globus Toolkit 4.2.0 and is available in both the binary bundles and the source bundle. For most purposes, the binary bundle provides the simplest means of installing the DRS and its requirements. There are three typical ways to access and install the DRS:

|---|---|
Before proceding with installation of DRS, please familiarize yourself with the installation procedures for RLS (see Replica Location Service (RLS)) and RFT (see Reliable File Transfer (RFT) Service). |
Follow instructions provided by Installing GT 4.2.0 and Installing GT in order to install the DRS from one of the available binary bundles of the Globus Toolkit.
Once you have unpackaged the binary bundle, the following commands may be used to install DRS:
% ./configure --prefix=$GLOBUS_LOCATION --enable-rls --enable-drs
% make
% make install
In order to install DRS, you will need to ensure that RLS is also installed as part of the build by reviewing its installation procedures. The following commands will install the DRS (optionally you may use the "drs" make target to build only DRS and its requirements:
% ./configure --prefix=/path/to/install --enable-rls --enable-drs % make [drs] % make install
Additionally, you may access the DRS from the Globus Toolkit CVS repository. You may deploy the 4.0.x DRS on top of an existing GT 4.0.x installation using the globus_4_0_branch tag. You may deploy the 4.1.x DRS on top of an existing GT 4.2 installation using the globus_4_2_branch tag.
The following example instructions will only work given the presence of an existing GT installation with all DRS dependencies. The best way to establish such an environment is to first follow the basic installation instructions and subsequently use the following instructions to obtain the latest updates from the CVS branch. Note the use of the globus_ tag depends on whether you are interested in updates from the maintenance branch or the development trunk.X_Y_branch
