Path to AidData drive on SciClone: /sciclone/aiddata10

mounting aiddata HPC directory - using sshfs (ubuntu)

sudo apt-get install sshfs

sudo mkdir -p /sciclone/aiddata10 sudo chown UBUNTU_USERNAME /sciclone/aiddata10 sudo sshfs -o allow_other [email protected]:/sciclone/aiddata10 /sciclone/aiddata10 enter HPC password when prompted aiddata directory is now mounted in /sciclone/aiddata10

alternatively, you can use the bash script labeled "sciclone" in this repo simply put the script in your home directory then open a terminal to mount: bash sciclone mount to unmount: bash sciclone unmount make sure to provide the correct password for your local computer and sciclone when requested
