| - | ===== Nuclear, Particle and Theorerical Physics ===== | + | 2020-06: I am currently working on some kind of system to keep track of usage and do some minimalistic data management. More information will come. |
| + | ===== Basic rules ===== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Please follow these rules to keep the storage tidy. | ||
| + | |||
| + | - Whenever you need to move data to one of the shared folders below,\\ **create a folder with a name than can be understood by everyone** and put the data in there. | ||
| + | - If the data has been generated by you or if it is for your exclusive use, **create a folder with your username** to accomodate the data. \\ In this way you keep your data away from unwanted people and you can set all the permissions you want on it. | ||
| + | * Data found outside a folder named after a user it is a good candidate to be deleted. Of course there can be exceptions when needed. | ||
| + | - Remove data that you don't use, for example from the ''scratch'' folders. Be kind to your colleagues! storage has a cost. | ||
| + | - Follow the instructions at [[aurora_cluster:moving_data|Moving Data to and from the Aurora cluster]] when you start moving data around. | ||

| + | ==== GRID storage ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | Lunarc hosts a GRID storage for ATLAS. Currently we are migrating from a 20TB storage to a 100TB. | ||
| + | |||
| + | The local storage GRID name is '' SE-SNIC-T2_LUND_LOCALGROUPDISK '' | ||
| + | |||
| + | One can interact through it using the Rucio client. It cannot be mounted directly on the cluster. Data can only be moved to and fro. Access is restricted to **ATLAS** members. | ||
| - | There are two storage servers installed for the exclusive use of particle physics. | + | Details on how to access this storage are at this page: http://www.hep.lu.se/grid/localgroupdisk.html |
| - | The recommendation is to use these instead of /project/hep/nobackup so to give space to the other users of it. | + | |
| - | :!: '/project/hep/fs2' is a symbolic link to '/project/hep/nobackup' | + | More on how to do transfers at [[aurora_cluster:moving_data | Moving data to and from the cluster]] |
| - | ^ Storage path ^ Folders ^ Intended usage ^ Size ^ | ||
| - | | '/project/hep/fs3' | 'share' | data that is meant to stay | 35TB | | ||
| - | | '/project/hep/fs4' | 'scratch' | temporary data | 35TB | | ||
| ===== Mathematical Physics ===== | ===== Mathematical Physics ===== | ||
| - | At the moment, only the user folders are available. We are negotiating a 10TB common storage with Lunarc. More information is soon to come. | + | At the moment, only standard LUNARC user folders are available, to my knowledge. Please contact me if you want this information to be updated. |
