Upload or Download Files

Using Rsync

Rsync is a fast and extraordinarily versatile file copying tool. It can copy locally, to/from another host over any remote shell, or to/from a remote rsync daemon.

rsync -avhz username@hayrat.uob.edu.bh:/home/nfs/username/data.csv /home/username

# Use ~ instead of the full path to home
rsync -avhz username@hayrat.uob.edu.bh:~/data.csv ~
