Mark,

I have attempted to do automated downloads with Aspera's command-line client, 
but have found using AWS S3 to be much easier. This method also allows you to 
select specific files for download, for instance if you only want to nifti 
images and not all intermediate steps included in the subjects folder.


setup details:

If you just want it all:

/pathto/Amazon/AWSCLI/aws s3 sync s3://hcp-openaccess/HCP_900 
/pathto/folderwith/subjectIDs


Whole subjects:

/cygdrive/c/Program\ Files/Amazon/AWSCLI/aws s3 sync 
s3://hcp-openaccess/HCP_900/100307 100307


Specific subjects files:

/pathto/Amazon/AWSCLI/aws s3 cp 
s3://hcp-openaccess/HCP_900/100307/MNINonLinear/Results/rfMRI_REST1_LR/rfMRI_REST1_LR_hp2000_clean.nii.gz
 rfMRI_REST1_LR_hp2000_clean.nii.gz


replacing 100307 with the subjects you need to download.

Please let me know if this helps. I've written some code that allows users to 
iteratively download, process, and delete through the S900 subjects with 
minimal storage and memory requirements, perhaps the download portion could be 
useful for you.

Subject: [HCP-Users] use of Aspera command-line client for unattended
        downloads/updates?

Has anyone used the Aspera command-line client (for Linux) to script unattended 
downloads of HCP
data and periodic updates?

We've got the 2014 500-case release installed and would like to update that to 
the Dec 2015 900
case release (and supplement that with any additional data). I'm interested in 
doing the equivalent
of 'rsync' via the Aspera client, and would appreciate any suggestions.

Thanks,

Mark
