« Previous Version 7

The login nodes (i.e., teton.arcc.uwyo.edu) support the use of SCP, SFTP, and Rsync. One may be interested in doing SSH multiplexing if often, small transfers are required when working with current SSH connections. For large files (>5GB), the Globus GridFTP software should be leveraged to move data. The Globus GridFTP software offers many advantages for transferring large data.

Glossary

Teton Cluster Filesystem

The Teton filesystem is available on all cluster nodes via a native protocol that leverages the high-speed InfiniBand network. Alternatively, ARCC supports accessing the filesystem via SMB/CIFS from Windows, macOS, and Linux when needing to access the data from outside the cluster, but still on the UW campus. Please see the documentation on accessing the filesystem.

SMB / CIFS Access

One can use SMB to connect to the Teton storage using the UW credentials provided that connection is physically happening on campus.

Operating System

Path

Windows

\\teton-cifs.arcc.uwyo.edu\

macOS

smb://teton-cifs.arcc.uwyo.edu/

Linux

smb://teton-cifs.arcc.uwyo.edu/

There are shares available for /home, /project, and /gscratch

In Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 and Ubuntu 16.04 or later, the samba configuration file is required to be modified by editing /etc/samba/smb.conf section [Global]] and adding:

 client max protocol = SMB3

NFS Access

NFS access to the Teton cluster filesystem is available only to ARCC administered systems that reside within the data center. NFS is not provided to use computers or workstations which IT administers.

ARCC petaLibrary Filesystem

The ARCC petaLibrary is available from the Teton login nodes. The ARCC petaLibrary is a capacity designed system and preference is to not compute against that filesystem, but move data to the Teton cluster filesystem locations and compute, perform any data reductions and compressions, and transfer final results on the appropriate petaLibrary share. PetaLibrary allocations are by contracts only; a Teton storage space doesn't provide a petaLibrary allocation in either the homes space or the Commons space. Please see petaLibrary for more information.

Do not make symbolic links on the Teton storage to the petaLibrary or vice versa as they'll be invalid anywhere except on the Teton login nodes. There are two accessible points of the petaLibrary.

  • Homes

    • /petalibrary/homes

  • Commons

    • /petalibrary/Commons

The Teton cluster leverages NFSv4 ACL to support data movement to and from the ARCC petaLibrary. It's important to note that commands chown or chmod cannot be issued on these locations to avoid losing the Windows ACLs that grant access to others.
