== Virtual Machine (Cloud VMs such as Arbutus, Cedar, East Cloud, Graham) ==
Globus Endpoints exist for the cluster systems (Beluga, Cedar, Graham, Niagara etc.) but not for Cloud VMs. The reason for this is that there isn't a singular storage for each VM so we can't create a single endpoint for everyone.
If you need a Globus Endpoint on your VM and can't use another transfer mechanism there are two options for installing a Globus Endpoint: Globus Connect Personal, and Globus Connect Server.
=== Globus Connect Personal ===
Globus Connect Personal is easier to install, manage and get through the firewall but is designed to be installed on laptops / desktops.
Install Globus Connect Personal on Windows:

Install Globus Connect Personal on Linux:
https://docs.globus.org/how-to/globus-connect-personal-linux/
=== Globus Connect Server ===
Server is designed for headless (command line only, no gui) installations and has some additional features I don't think you would use (such as ability to add multiple servers to the endpoint). It does require opening some ports to allow transfers to occur (they are listed in the docs below).
Install Globus Connect Server:
