Permissions and setting up your project directory on ACF

Meg Staton edited this page Aug 31, 2020 · 1 revision

Log onto the acf and request an interactive session using qsub (see course home page). Navigate to our course folder:

cd /lustre/haven/proj/UTK0138

Create your own personal folder

        mkdir yourusername

Look at the permissions

        ls -l

By default, others should not be able to write over anything in your folder. However, anyone in the group will be able to. Let's change that.

         chmod g-w yourusername
         ls -l

Okay, now before you download data, get into your own folder.

         cd yourusername
