SCC FTP Server

Data Could be transferred via the login node server: scclogin.camhres.ca

The FTP server supports SFTP, rsync and scp.

Linux: scp and rysnc

Data should be transferred to the SCC using ‘scp’ (secure copy).

Secure copy a local file(s) from a remote host (your local machine) to a directory on the SCC with the following syntax: scp <username>@<local_machine>:/<local_file> <SCC_directory>

scc$ scp david@kimsrv:/home/david/file.c /imaging/home/kimel/david/

Make certain that you have read permission on the data you are copying and write permissions in the destination directory. Note that the speed of transfer will vary depending on daily traffic. Remember we are limited to 1GB Ethernet, over which many users may be transferring substantial datasets.

Windows: WinScp

Transferring data using 'scp' or 'rsync' works well for linux environments, but it is more convenient to transfer data using WinScp on windows machines.

WinScp can be downloaded for free at:

http://winscp.net/eng/download.php

Follow the installation instructions to install on your local machine. WinScp has a user interface that allows you to drag and drop files from your windows machine to your directories on the SCC.
