  • We think rsync and FileZilla were possibly weak, because of (1) unclear prerequisites and (2) need to install things, (3) too many steps to do on some clusters, e .g. Alvis. (4) too many terminals: mobaXterm or WSL

  • [Decision] Better prerequisites will already have an effect

  • [Decision] Course order:
    • How to do thing:
      • FileZilla: R
      • (login and) scp: B
      • cluster to cluster file transfer: B
    • How to do things effectively
      • (optional) archiving (especially from terminal): B
      • (optional) rsync: R
      • (optional) sftp: B
  • [Decided] The (optional) learning outcomes are shown like that on the website
  • Is 'Connecting' part of the course?
    • we feel connecting is a prerequisite. It is in the prerequisites. We do take the time for doing this :-)
  • Is 'success score' a good measure?
    • [Decision] No, we should measure before and after and use the improvement score.
    • [Decision] Next time, we add a pre-evaluation to the registration form, which is optional, add why we want this.
  • Should we do transfer between clusters?
    • Yes
    • We add it to the learning outcomes
    • We add it to the schedule
    • B will teach it :-)
  • [Decided] Zoom room is found in a file on an HPC cluster
    • R will document and make a video
    • R will ask Joakim
