      Description

      This software, in theory, would let us open files stored on the UNC Charlotte cluster in IGB without first having to copy them over to our personal computer's local file system:

      https://github.com/libfuse/sshfs

      This software, called "sshfs" for "secure shell file system", can "mount" a remote file system that is accessible via ssh, onto your local computer. Once that is done, IGB should then be able to open the remote files as if they were actually local.

      For this task, work with Research Computing and other experts as needed to open BAM files in IGB running on your local computer.
