Transferring Data from the PSI Network to/from Merlin6

Rsync

Rsync is the preferred method to transfer data from Linux/MacOS. It allows transfers to be easily resumed if they get interrupted. The general syntax is:

rsync -avAHXS <src> <dst>

For example, to transfer files from your local computer to a merlin project directory:

rsync -avAHXS ~/localdata user@merlin-l-01.psi.ch:/data/project/general/myproject/
