Data Transfer
SFTP and SCP
The SSH-based SFTP and SCP utilities can be used to transfer files to and from NCCS systems. Because these utilities can be slow, we recommend using them to transfer small numbers of smaller files. More information on these utilities can be found on the SFTP/SCP page.
BBCP
For larger files, the multistreaming transfer utility BBCP is recommended. The BBCP utility is capable of breaking up your transfer into multiple simultaneously transferring streams, thereby transferring data much faster than single-streaming utilities such as SCP and SFTP. More information can be found on the BBCP page.
HSI
Access to the HPSS is accomplished through the Hierarchical Storage Interface (HSI) utility. More information can be found on the HSI page.
