Action 14/15 Investigate if WebDAV can support third-party transfer; the goal is to find out if EMI storage elements with no GridFTP can be used in Globus Online Response: Even though the EMI storage elements (dCache, StoRM, DPM) support non-gridftp data transfer channels (webdap, https) the EMI SEs can only be used with Globus Online through the GridFTP protocol. This is because a non-gridftp-based third-party transfer would require additional capabilities in the Globus Online service that is not available. On the other hand, EMI's data transfer solution (FTS) is being developed to support 3-rd party transfer via webdaw transfer channels of EMI SEs. This feature would be delivered with FTS3 around February 2013.
