EOS is a storage facility for CERN LHC use cases.

**EOS commands**

  - eos ls : list contents
  - eos cp : copy contents

**EOSmount**

  - eosmount ~/eos : mount the eos foler, which can then be used with regular unix commands.

**Copying files from EOS to Carleton**

Not sure if this is the best way, but one possibliity is to

  - Log in to lxplus. 
  - Take note of the node name (e.g. lxplus004)
  - Copy the files you want to the /tmp/$USER disk at the lxplus node
  - Once finished, scp (or rcp) the file from the tmp disk to the Carleton disk.

**Example**

<code>
cd /tmp/$USER
eos ls /eos/atlas/atlascerngroupdisk/phys-higgs/HSG1/MxAOD/h014/mc15c/
eos cp /eos/atlas/atlascerngroupdisk/phys-higgs/HSG1/MxAOD/h014/mc15c/mc15c.PowhegPy8_ggH125.MxAODDetailed.p2669.h014.root ./
</code>
From Carleton, you can copy the file with the command
<code> 
scp tapark@lxplus0059.cern.ch:/tmp/tapark/mc15c.PowhegPy8_ggH125.MxAODDetailed.p2669.h014.root .
