Fireworks with login node offline #456

Open googhgoo opened 3 years ago

googhgoo commented 3 years ago

Dear fireworks team and contributor,

I'm currently working with a server that have firewalled login node that prevents mongo communication on top of the offline computation nodes. I'd like to still use fireworks in this server by transferring files from other server with mongo connection, e.g.,:

[mongodb service] <-(mongo)-> [other server] <-(scp manual transfer)-> [firewalled computation server]

Can this be achieved without modification to the source code? e.g., I can create job using the offline mode in the [other server], transfer it to firewalled server and run the firework job by manual job submission. Subsequently, I can manually transfer back to other server, and update the mongodb.

Thank you very much
