The Tutorial Data SetΒΆ

From here on, make sure you are actually working on the OpenStack cloud instance (logged in via ssh) and not on your local workstation (see previous chapter).

We have prepared a small toy data set for this tutorial. The data is already located on the OpenStack instance in the ~/WGS-data directory, which has the following content:

File Content
genomes/ Directory containing the reference genomes
gold_std/ Gold Standard assemblies
read1.fq Read 1 of paired reads (FASTQ)
read2.fq Read 2 of paired reads (FASTQ)
reads.fas Shuffled reads (FASTA)

Create a working directory in your home directory and symbolic links to the data files:

mkdir -p /vol/spool/workdir/assembly
cd /vol/spool/workdir/assembly
cp -rv ~/WGS-data/* .
