VSC-4 Storage
VSC-4 provides three facilities for persisting data: the high-performance IBM Spectrum Scale Parallel Filesystem, BeeGFS Parallel Filesystem (former Fraunhofer Parallel Filesystem, FhGFS) and a node-local SSD. They are accessible under:
- IBM Spectrum Scale:
$HOME
expands to /home/fs<project>/<username>,$DATA
expands to /gpfs/data/fs<project>/<username>
- BeeGFS (former FhGFS):
$BINFL
expands to /binfl/lv<project>/<username>,$BINFS
expands to /binfs/lv<project>/<username>
- Local SSD
/local
Usage ''$HOME''
$HOME
is the location of the user UNIX home directory. It can be accessed from login and compute nodes. $HOME
should be used for storing/compiling code - data for which high concurrent job throughput and support for large file sizes is not required.
Quota on $HOME
is 100GB and 10^6 number of files and can not be extended
