Not necessarily. At least for streaming, you'd need one. But you can send stdout/err to whatever gridftp server you want, including the one on the GRAM4 machine itself. All you need is a globus-url- copy client to retrieve it later, which CoG has, doesn't it?

There is cog-job-submit. If you specify "gt4" as a provider (the -p
argument), it will submit to WS-GRAM.

fine, but it seems we cannot get back the results with GT4.

I'm not sure what you mean by that.

-r is not working with -p gt4

Right. Redirection in ws-gram can only be done if you have a GridFTP
server installed on your client machine as far as I know. Which was
mainly the reason CoG doesn't support it.

However, WS-GRAM has a Java client (accessible through the API) which
CoG uses. You could install that and wrap it in a command line thing. In
the Globus source tree, it's in ws-gram/client/java.

However, if I'm right about the GridFTP issue above, you would still
need a GridFTP server on the client machine. And then you're back to
square one.
