Transferring files between instances - UTMediaCAT/mediacat-docs GitHub Wiki

A lot of our json files are massive so downloading them to your own machine might be slow depending on your internet connection.

Instead its better to work on one of our instances (for ex arbutus). Follow the instructions below to transfer files between instances.

Google Doc with ips and passwords

• ask owner for permission

To transfer a file from Graham to Arbutus, first ssh into Arbutus. Then in arbutus enter the following commands

scp [email protected]:[path to file on graham] [destination on arbutus]

You will be prompted for a password. In the case of Arbutus the password is arbutus

If the instance you want to work with is not on this page, you can follow the steps on Setting up SSH
