Transferring files from local Reading-based workstation disks /var/tmp or /hugetmp

Direct transfers from your workstation to the spaces in bologna Bologna are discouraged, since they would not use the direct e-vpn dedicated network link between Reading and Bologna the two data centres and transfer rates will be poor. Instead, you may force the transfers to jump through ecgate for best results. For example, to transfer a directory and its contents under your local disk onto the newPERM space in Bologna:

user@leap42-workstation:~> rsync -av -e "ssh -o ProxyCommand='ssh -q -W %h:%p ecgate'" /var/tmp/user/mydataset aa-login:/perm/user/mydataset
