RStor Usage

stylus_note
RStor is currently available to UMass Amherst groups only.

You can use RStor the same way you use any other path on Unity, through standard methods for managing files such as the CLI, Globus, and OnDemand.

Your RStor share can be found at the path /rstor/your_share_name_here.

Mounting Your RStor Share on Your Desktop

stylus_note
Before mounting your RStor share on your desktop, you must either be on the UMass Amherst campus network or connected through the UMass Amherst VPN.

You will be connecting to the URL smb://rstor.rc.umass.edu/your_share_name_here with the same email and password you use for single-sign-on (SSO).

For MacOS users: Go to the Apple documentation for connecting to shared computers and servers and follow the instructions under the header Connect to a computer or server by entering its address. When prompted for how to connect, select Registered User.

For Windows users: Go to the Microsoft documentation for file sharing over a network and follow the instructions under the dropdown How do I map a network drive?
