The data transfer speed between OSC and another network can be tested.
Test data transfer speed with iperf3 tool
Connect to a data mover host at osc and note the hostname.
$ ssh sftp.osc.edu # login $ hostname gcs01.hpc.osc.edu # the hostname may also be gcs02.hpc.osc.edu
From there, an iperf3 server process can be started. Note the port used.

OpenCV is an open-source library that includes several hundreds of computer vision algorithms.
In December 2021 OSC updated its firewall to enhance security. As a result, SSH sessions are being closed more quickly than they used to be. It is very easy to modify your SSH options in the client you use to connect to OSC to keep your connection open.

Keep protected data in proper locations
Protected data must be stored in predetermined locations. The only locations at OSC to store protected data are
(Only with prior approval from OSC may a protected data service project not have a project prefix of PDE).
/fs/ess/PDEXXXX and /fs/scratch/PDEXXXX directories.(Only with prior approval from OSC may a protected data service project not have a project prefix of PDE).
