+If Globus is not supported at your source site, then the advice to compress data and avoid duplication is even more important. If you must use one of [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_copy scp], [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSH_File_Transfer_Protocol sftp], or [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rsync rsync], then:
 * Make a schedule to migrate your data in blocks of a few hundred GB at a time. If the transfer stops for any reason you will be able to try again starting from the incomplete file, but you will not have to re-transfer files that are already complete. An organized list of files will help here.
 * Check regularly to see that the transfer process has not stopped. File size is a good indicator of progress. If no files have changed size for several minutes, then something may have gone wrong. If restarting the transfer does not work, contact [mailto:support@computecanada.ca support@computecanada.ca].
