If Globus is not supported at your source site, then compressing data and avoiding duplication is even more important. If you are using scp, sftp, or rsync, then:
- Make a schedule to migrate your data in blocks of a few hundreds of GBs at a time. If the transfer stops for some 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 our technical support.
