To get an overview of how much of your project allocation that has been used, please use the projinfo command. Please use the command projinfo -h to get details on usage.

Usage: projinfo [-OPTIONS [-MORE_OPTIONS]] [--] [PROGRAM_ARG1 ...]

The following single-character options are accepted:
        With arguments: -s -e -M
        Boolean (without arguments): -h -q -v -m -y

  • With no flags given, projinfo will tell you your usage during the current month.

  • Usage in project "testproj" during the current year: projinfo -y testproj

  • Usage in project testproj during the specified two months: projinfo -s 2010-02 -e 2010-03 testproj

Usage in your projects today until the moment you run the command: projinfo -s today

How do I specify that I do not need my large datasets to be backed up?

How do I specify that I do not need my large datasets to be backed up?

If you create a folder named nobackup, inside any folder, then all data stored inside this folder will not be backed-up.

Simply move (mv or rsync) your data into a folder with the proper name.

Also note that all projects have a separate nobackup folder under the /proj/xyz/ hierarchy (and also under the /proj/xyz/private/ hierarchy) with a separate quota limit than the ordinary backed up project folder. You can read more about this in our disk storage guide.

What is this 'glob' folder in my home folder?
  • The glob directory found in your home has been deprecated since early 2017.
  • It is now a normal directory and shared your default 32GByte sized home.

  • The glob directory remains to not interfere with scripts who might reference ~/glob in the source code.

  • Historically, the glob directory was the main storage area for storage of user data.

    • It was shared by all nodes.
    • The directory was used for files needed by all job instances and could house files exceeding the quota of the home directory.
    • Job input and output files was (and can still be) stored here.

Members

Check the current project members with:

projmembers <project-name>

If you want to check which members that presently belong to a certain (Linux) group you do:

getent groups <project name>
