CILogon Certificate for TRANSP Production

The certificate signed by CILogon should be stored on the computer from which TRANSP runs are submitted, in your home directory, $HOME/.globus

Search for your institution in the list. For example "University of Padova", "EPFL - EPF Lausanne", "Lehigh University", "INFN - National Institute for Nuclear Physics", "Columbia University", are all listed
PPPL employees can use the "Princeton University" account
PSFC employees can choose "Massachusetts Institute of Technology"
If your institution is not listed, you can login in with your "Google" or "GitHub" account.

Obtain the new certificate by entering a password. Remember this password, you will need it later to extract the Certificate.
Download the certificate.
On the computer that you will run TRANSP from, store the certificate in your $HOME/.globus/ directory. If this directory does not exist, then create it.
Run the following commands from inside the $HOME/.globus/ directory (you will need to enter the same password as the CILogon)

openssl pkcs12 -in usercred.p12 -out userkey.pem -nodes -nocerts
openssl pkcs12 -in usercred.p12 -out usercert.pem -nodes -clcerts -nokeys
chmod 644 usercert.pem
chmod 400 userkey.pem
To authenticate with the new Certificate (let's say for 264 hours) run the following command:
grid-proxy-init -hours 264
this command should return
