New Scratch Volume

As part of our ongoing migration to GPFS, we have setup a new scratch volume.  We encourage all general-access scratch users to move to this new volume as soon as possible.

We have setup a new general access scratch space, located at /gpfs/research/scratch/[USERNAME].


Please re-configure your jobs to use the new scratch space as soon as possible.  We will permanently remove the old scratch space on Thursday, May 31.


If you have a symlink steup in your home directory (e.g. ~/scratch), you can update it by running the following command:

$ rm -f ~/scratch && ln -s /gpfs/research/scratch/`whoami` ~/scratch

This is part of our migration to the new GPFS file system.  For more details, please refer to our news announcement.


If you have any questions or issues, please let us know (support@rcc.fsu.edu).
