@ -12,16 +12,21 @@ To use a cluster, your repository needs to have its gateway configured as a
remote. Clusters can currently only be accessed via ssh. This gateway
remote is added the same as any other git remote:
git remote add bigserver me@bigserver:annex
$ git remote add bigserver me@bigserver:annex
The gateway publishes information about the cluster to the git-annex
branch. So you may need to fetch from it to learn about the cluster:
git fetch bigserver
$ git fetch bigserver
That will make available an additional remote for the cluster, eg
"bigserver-mycluster", as well as some remotes for each node eg
"bigserver-node1", "bigserver-node2", etc.
"bigserver-mycluster", as well as some remotes for each node.
$ git annex info bigserver
...
gateway to cluster: bigserver-mycluster
proxying: bigserver-node1 bigserver-node2 bigserver-node3
...
You can get files from the cluster without caring which node it comes
