Access to HCC Supercomputers
------------------------------- ### Windows 10
--------------
For Windows 10 users, use the Command Prompt, accessed by entering `cmd` in the start menu, to access to the
HCC supercomputers. In the Command Prompt,
type `ssh <username>@tusker.unl.edu` and the corresponding password
to get access to the HCC cluster **Tusker**. Note that &lt;username&gt;
should be replaced by your HCC account username. If you do not have a
HCC account, please contact a HCC specialist
({{< icon name="envelope" >}}[hcc-support@unl.edu] (mailto:hcc-support@unl.edu))
or go to http://hcc.unl.edu/newusers.
To use the **Crane** cluster, replace tusker.unl.edu with crane.unl.edu.

### SCP
For Windows users, file transferring between your personal computer
and the HCC supercomputers can be achieved through the command `scp`.
Here we use **Tusker** for example. **The following commands should be
executed from your computer. **
**Uploading from local to remote**
{{< highlight bash >}}
C:\> scp -r .\<folder name> <username>@tusker.unl.edu:/work/<group name>/<username>
{{< /highlight >}}
The above command line transfers a folder from the current directory
(`.\`) of the your computer to the `$WORK` directory of the HCC
supercomputer, Tusker. Note that you need to replace `<group name>`
and `<username>` with your HCC group name and username.
**Downloading from remote to local**
{{< highlight bash >}}
C:\> scp -r <username>@tusker.unl.edu:/work/<group name>/<username>/<folder name> .\
{{< /highlight >}}
The above command line transfers a folder from the `$WORK` directory of
the HCC supercomputer, Tusker, to the current directory (`.\`) of the
your computer.
