4. "What is the best way to transfer my files to/from ACISS to Talapas?"There are
multiple ways to do this, but perhaps From a Mac or Linux machine:
Perhaps the easiest way for you to do this is by using rsync, e.g.:
Login to Talapas:
ssh myDuckID@talapas-login.uoregon.eduthen execute rsync:
[user@ln1 ~]$ rsync -auv myDuckID@ftn@talapas-login.aciss.uoregon.edu:/projects/myHomeDirectory/myDuckID acissmyPIRG/myDuckID/myDataDirectory myDestinationDirectory
alternatively you can use scp:
[user@ln1 ~]$ scp -rp myDuckID@ftn.aciss@talapas-login.uoregon.edu:/projects/myPIRG/myHomeDirectorymyDuckID/myDuckID acissmyDataDirectory myDestinationDirectory
This will create for you a directory "aciss" within your home directory on Talapas which will contain the contents of your home directory on ACISS without disturbing your top home directory on TalapasmyDestinationDirectory" on your Mac/Linux machine. If your transfer gets interrupted, then try rsync with the "u" option (for update).
From a Windows machine:
You will need a FTP/SCP client like WinSCP or Cyberduck (Cyberduck is also available for Mac).
Globus and GridFTP is also available on Talapas (more info forthcoming).
After your transfer has completed, you can reorganize as you please. If you need further assistance on your file transfer, let us know.
