Hi,

We've set up GridFTP (4.2.1) on several nodes across our WAN (2 sites)
using the quickstart documentation.

We are not seeing any issues while transferring large files but when
we do a batch transfer (globus-url-copy) with lots of small files
(LOSF) then we have problems.
The debug/verbose output is the following :
----------------------------------------------------

error transferring:
globus_ftp_client: the server responded with an error
500 500-Command failed. : globus_l_gfs_file_open failed.
500-globus_xio: Unable to open file /path/to/data/losf/small0aAEq8QsYSCJ
500-globus_xio: System error in open: Permission denied
500-globus_xio: A system call failed: Permission denied
500 End.

error: There was an error with one or more transfers.
---------------------------------------------------

Note, that this error is intermittent as the same transfer works sometimes.

We would appreciate some advice info on what could be the problem and
also how to investigate further.

Thanks
Arn
