File Transfer
The prefered way to transfer files is through the secured file transfer protocal SFTP. sFTP Instructions
Data collected on the Raxis 4 can now be transfered to the UNIX cluster via ftp.
FTP Instructions
Backups and Downloads
Currently backups and/or downloads can be done with either 4mm DDS4 tapes, CD's or DVD's. The DDS4 and CD writer are located on REDWALL1 and the DVD burner is on Angelina. DVD's and CD's can be burned using the program K3B under Linux.
DVD/CD writing instructions on angelina.br.caltech.edu.
Data can also be transfered to the cluster via sftp. It is recommanded that you put your raw image files on one of the /temp disks on the linux boxes or the temp directories on the alpha's preferably the one you are working on. Please remember that files are deleted from the /temp directories every 3 days from the date they are written.
Data can now be stored for a longer period of time in /net/lindy1/imagestorage or on windows //lindy1/imagestorage. Please be aware that you should transfer the images to the /temp directory on the computer that you are processing your data on.
YOUR HOME DIRECTORY IS NOT TO BE USED FOR IMAGE STORAGE!
