Transfer from Madison
To transfer files from Madison to T2B and keep their structure identical, use the following command on m-machines :
umask 0002 && rsync -avP --no-implied-dirs --relative MADISON_USERNAME@data.icecube.wisc.edu:/data/DIRECTORIES/FILES / && umask 0022
- umask is used to set correct permissions for group (if not specified, other users won't be able to write in created directories !)
- MADISON_USERNAME@ is optional if it is the same as the T2B one
To avoid typing the password of the Madison server, connect to the T2 cluster adding the -A option, which Enables forwarding of the authentication agent connection (dixit man):
ssh -A mshort.iihe.ac.be
