Dear Saga User,
We have the pleasure to announce that we have now fixed all the technical requirements and mounted NIRD project file systems on Saga login nodes.
You may find your projects in the
/nird/projects/nird
folder.
Please note that to transfer of large amount of files is sluggish and has a big impact on the I/O performance. It is always better to transfer one larger file than many small files.
As an example, transfer of a folder with 70k entries and about 872MB took 18 minutes, while the same files archived into a single 904MB file took 3 seconds.
You can read more about the tar archiving command by reading the manual pages. Type
man tar
in your Saga terminal.
