Installing an S3 client applicationWorking with Acacia requires client applications compatible with the Amazon S3 protocol. These clients can be accessed from Pawsey clusters or they can be installed on your local/institutional computer. |
Acacia is a modern object storage system built upon the open-source software Ceph. Interacting with Acacia and managing your data on it requires client applications compatible with the Amazon S3 protocol. Such clients can be accessed from Pawsey clusters or they can be installed on your local/institutional computer. Pawsey recommends the open-source Rclone command line program, and for researchers who have Managed Data projects we also provide the Pawsey client pshell.
Pawsey Supercomputers and Data Mover Nodes
Rclone can be accessed on Pawsey's supercompute facilities through the module system. There is no default module version, so you can check the available versions with:
...
| Code Block |
|---|
module load rclone/<version> |
Pshell requires >= Python 3.6.x and boto3
| Code Block |
|---|
module load python/3.6.3 module load boto3 |
Then download the client:
| Code Block |
|---|
git clone https://bitbucket.org/datapawsey/mfclient.git |
Other Systems
Rclone installation on Linux/macOS/BSD systems, run:
| Code Block |
