Obtain Files from NCAR HPC¶
Important
This can only be done before your HPC account access expires.
Use the following instructions to copy files from Derecho to your local machine.
Navigate to the directory on Derecho where your files reside.
Issue the command
pwd
. This prints your current path where your files reside. Use keyboard or mouse commands to copy the path.Now open another terminal window (or tab) - DO NOT LOG IN TO DERECHO - and move to a directory on your local system where you would like to put the files.
On your local system, issue a version of the following command (modify it for your specific files/paths) to copy the files from Derecho to your local machine.
scp user-name@derecho.hpc.ucar.edu:/path-to-your-files/files* .
Note
If you are copying numerous files, it will be quicker to first package the files and then just copy that single packaged file. To package several files together, go to the directory where the files reside and then issue something like the following:
tar -cf file-name-you-choose.tar files*
Make sure to include the star (*) so that it grabs all the files with that prefix. You can then go to your local machine and start with step 4 above, but just copy the single .tar file, instead of multiple files.
