Storage Overview


After logging in to the Free Tieryou Tier, you will be in your home directory. This storage space (20 GB) is appropriate for smaller files, such as documents, source code, and scripts but will fill up quickly if used for data sets or other large files.


HabaneroTerremoto's shared storage server is named "Rigelmoto", and consequently the path to all home and scratch directories begins with "/rigelmoto". Your home directory is located at /rigelmoto/home/<UNI>. This is also the value of the environment variable $HOME.

...

Each group account on Free Tierhas Tier has an associated scratch storage space that is at least 1 terabyte (TB) in size. Note the important "No backups" warning regarding this storage at the bottom of this page. Your group account's scratch storage is located under /rigelmoto/<ACCOUNT>. The storage for each account is as following:

The amount of data stored in any directory along with its subdirectories can be found with:

...

Inodes are used to store information about files and directories and an inode is used up for every file and directory that's created. Each group has a limited number of inodes based on how many TB of storage purchased. To check your groups inode usage and limit, run:


$ df -hi /rigelmoto/<ACCOUNT>
  

Should your group run out of inodes and there are free inodes available, we may be able to increase your inode allocation. Please contact us for more details about this if your group is running out of inodes.

...

Free Tier users can create directories in their account's scratch storage using their UNI or a project name.


Code Block
$ cd /rigelmoto/<ACCOUNT>/users/
$ mkdir <UNI>

...

For example, an astro member may create the following directory:


Code Block
$ cd /rigelmoto/astro/users/
$ mkdir <UNI>

...

Alternatively, for a project shared with other users:


Code Block
$ cd /rigelmoto/astro/projects/
$ mkdir <PROJECT_NAME>
