There are various methods of transferring files to and from the various compute platforms Service. This Tutorial will show how to transfer files using the recommended method between your local computer and any of the compute platforms. All methods take advantage of the Secure copy Protocol (scp). The scp command allows you to copy files over a ssh connection. This is useful if you want to transport files between a local desktop and remote host e.g. CSF\/iCSF. The scp command uses ssh therefore any files copied in this way are done so in a secure manner via. The scp command can be used in three ways:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Copy from a (remote) server to your computer<\/li>\n<li>Copy from your computer to a (remote) server<\/li>\n<li>Copy from a (remote) server to another (remote) server.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<h2>Requirements<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Windows &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/winscp.net\/eng\/index.php\">WinSCP<\/a> installed<\/li>\n<li>Linux\/MacOS &#8211; Some basic command line knowledge<\/li>\n<li>CSF\/iCSF Account<\/li>\n<li>Sample Data &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/personalpages.manchester.ac.uk\/staff\/chris.grave\/tutorial\/File_Transfer\/files\/SampleData.zip\">SampleData.zip<\/a><\/li>\n<li>If Off-Campus you will need to be connected to the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.itservices.manchester.ac.uk\/ourservices\/popular\/vpn\/\">UoM VPN<\/a> (Global Protect) with 2FA<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Further information and instructions on other methods can be found by following this <a href=\"http:\/\/ri.itservices.manchester.ac.uk\/userdocs\/file-transfer\/\">link<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><button class=\"accordion\">Windows<\/button><\/p>\n<div class=\"panel\">\n<h2>WinSCP<\/h2>\n<h4>Video Demonstration<\/h4>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/personalpages.manchester.ac.uk\/staff\/chris.grave\/tutorial\/File_Transfer\/videos\/file_transfer-winscp.mp4\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/personalpages.manchester.ac.uk\/staff\/chris.grave\/tutorial\/File_Transfer\/images\/file_transfer-WinSCP.png\" alt=\"Video WinSCP File Transfer \" width=\"240\" height=\"180\" border=\"10\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h4 id=\"steps\">How To<\/h4>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ol>\n<li>If you haven&#8217;t already download and extract the <a href=\"https:\/\/personalpages.manchester.ac.uk\/staff\/chris.grave\/tutorial\/File_Transfer\/files\/SampleData.zip\">SampleData.zip<\/a> dataset to your local desktop.<\/li>\n<li>Open <strong>WinSCP<\/strong> and from the <strong>Login window<\/strong> create a new session.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Please note<\/strong>: If the Login window does not appear you can create a new session by doing the following:<code>Session &gt; New Session<\/code><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ol>\n<li>Under the <strong>Login Window <\/strong>enter the following in\n<ul>\n<li><strong>File Protocol<\/strong>: <em>Select<\/em> SCP<\/li>\n<li><strong>Host name:<\/strong> Enter one of the following hosts depending on your destination.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<table>\n<thead>\n<tr class=\"header\">\n<th>System<\/th>\n<th style=\"text-align: center;\">Hostname used for Access<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n<\/thead>\n<tbody>\n<tr class=\"odd\">\n<td>iCSF\/incline<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">incline.itservices.manchester.ac.uk<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"even\">\n<td>CSF3<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">csf3.itservices.manchester.ac.uk<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"odd\">\n<td>RDS-SSH<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">rds-ssh.itservices.manchester.ac.uk<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr class=\"even\">\n<td>Condor<\/td>\n<td style=\"text-align: center;\">submitter.itservices.manchester.ac.uk<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Please note<\/strong>:For the purposes of this tutorial we will connect to <code>incline.itservices.manchester.ac.uk<\/code><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ol>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Port:<\/strong> <em>Enter<\/em><code>22<\/code><\/li>\n<li><strong>User Name:<\/strong> <em>Enter<\/em> your <code>central username<\/code><\/li>\n<li><strong>Password:<\/strong> <em>Leave blank<\/em><\/li>\n<li>Select<strong> Advanced<\/strong> Under the<strong> Connection <\/strong>option enter the following\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Server Response timeout: <\/strong><em>Enter<\/em> <code>60<\/code><\/li>\n<li>Select <strong>OK<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Select <strong>Save<\/strong><\/li>\n<li>Select <strong>Login<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<blockquote><p><strong>Please note<\/strong>: The first time you connect using WinSCP you will likely receive the following message\u00a0 &#8216;<em>Continue connecting to an unknown server and add its host key to cache&#8230;<\/em>&#8216; This is a fundamental feature of SSH, helping to prevent your data being intercepted by a third party by providing a known &#8220;key&#8221; \u00a0Select <code>Yes<\/code><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<ol>\n<li style=\"list-style-type: none;\">\n<ul>\n<li>When prompted for <strong>Password:<\/strong> <em>Enter<\/em> your <code>central password<\/code><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>\u00a0The main <strong>WinSCP commander<\/strong> window should open this is similar to a Windows explorer window.
