+=== Access ===
+Scratch space is only mounted on nodes associated with the cluster. If you want to be able to transfer files to the scratch space you will want to run an [[techstaff:slurm#interactive_jobs|interactive shell]]. Now you will be able to use standard tools such as ''%%scp%%'' or ''%%rsync%%'' to transfer files.
+  - You should only do a file transfer via the debug partition: ''%% srun -p debug --pty --mem 500 /bin/bash%%''
+  - Now you can create a directory of your own: ''%%mkdir /scratch/$USER%%''
 ==== Utilization Dashboard ====
