Hi @hohosharon

In the default configuration:

> [@hohosharon](#):
>
> Galaxy job runner setup: I am using the default local runner configured in job\_conf.yml on the shared HPC.

jobs are running on the host server (or proxy).

> <https://github.com/galaxyproject/galaxy/blob/aed502d340ad48745d3e12db3fae53c218bee391/lib/galaxy/config/sample/job_conf.sample.yml#L1090C1-L1096C21>

In short, the Upload jobs work a bit differently than the other tools and downloads are only about permissions. The instructions for configuring uploads can be found here → [Production Environments — Galaxy Project 25.0.2.dev0 documentation](https://docs.galaxyproject.org/en/master/admin/production.html#make-the-proxy-handle-uploads-and-downloads)

XRef → [Private Galaxy Servers](https://help.galaxyproject.org/t/private-galaxy-servers/10861)

Hope this helps and you can ask follow-up questions later on! 🙂
