  • First register for the bwDataArchive service. You will receive a service specific user name and password and fill a registration form. In an email you will receive further instructions. After your personal information was successfully validated, your account will be approved to transfer data. Depending on the time of your registration, this may take some hours or up to two working days.
  • Log in using your bwDataArchive user name (e.g. 'xxx'): sftp xxx@archive-sftp.lsdf.kit.edu

Example:

[root@scc-sdm-dl-lt01-sl ~]# sftp k23@archive-sftp.lsdf.kit.edu
Connecting to archive-sftp.lsdf.kit.edu...
k23@archive-sftp.lsdf.kit.edu's password: 
sftp> ls -l
drwx------    4 k23      12345         512 Nov 23 16:51 private
sftp> cd private
sftp> pwd
Remote working directory: /private
sftp>
 

The directory 'private' itself cannot be removed or renamed. Just create folders inside 'private' to organize your data.
