3. Storing user profiles¶

The main advantage of calculate-client is probably that it provides centralized storing of users profiles.

At system login and logout, the cl-sync program is launched, which synchronizes the current session with the server. Of course, this happens only if the user is registred in the domain. Files are transferred by rsync: traffic is optimized as it dispatches only the files that have been modified.

In addition to synchronization, cl-sync mounts the user's home directory in /home/$USER /Home, as well as the network resources: /home/$USER/Disk.
