Accessing from/to the outside

The login nodes are the only nodes accessible from external networks, and no connections from the cluster to the outside world are permitted for security reasons.

IMPORTANT

All file transfers from/to the outside must be executed from your local machine and not within the cluster.

Examples
  • Copying files or directories from MareNostrum 5 to an external machine:

    mylaptop$> scp -r {username}@transfer1.bsc.es:"MN5_SOURCE_dir" "mylaptop_DEST_dir"
  • Copying files or directories from an external machine to MareNostrum 5:

    mylaptop$> scp -r "mylaptop_SOURCE_dir" {username}@transfer1.bsc.es:"MN5_DEST_dir"

Password change

IMPORTANT

For security reasons, you must change the first password.

To change the password:

  1. Log in to the transfer1 machine (use the same username and password as in the cluster):

    mylaptop$> ssh {username}@transfer1.bsc.es
  2. Run the passwd command and set a new password:

    transfer1$> passwd
  3. The new password should become effective about 5 minutes after the change.
