If a simulation was ran on systems with HPSS: run zstash to archive the data to the local HPSS tape. If the HPSS is not on NERSC, use globus Globus to transfer the zstash *.tar and index.db files to NERSC HPSS:
If data were archived on Theta HPSS, to transfer to NERSC HPSS, use the Globus endpoint alcf#dtn_hpss and NERSC HPSS. (Make sure to opt for “verify file integrity after transfer“, which checks if source and destination file checksums match)
If a simulation was ran on a system without HPSS (i.e., anvil and compy): run zstash to generate index.db and tar files locally [Note: this zstash feature is under development will be available soon, ~within this month?] and transfer these files to NERSC HPSS using globusGlobus.
Notes on using zstash:
