Ok Alan,
This will take ~2 hours to percolate through the cluster, but parts of it
should already have this:
[root@iliadaccess02 ~]# df -h /n/aspuru_lab2/
Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on
helios:/root_vdm_6/aspuru_lab2/share_root
2.0T 2.7M 2.0T 1% /n/aspuru_lab2
All members of aspuru_lab group should have read/write access to it.
Thanks.
Suvendra.

Dear Alan,
I am sorry you are having trouble with disk space on Odyssey. I made sure
that you have access to the CDI funded storage. You should have space there.
But lets just get rid of these problems.
I will create a separate file system for you with 2TB (can be expanded in
future) and mount it across the cluster. This will take a little bit of
time. But it should be ready by later tonight. I'll put no quota limits on
it to begin with so we don't run into those. It will exclusively for your
group so no else is involved.
Our storage is at $600/TB for 3 years, but you've been through thick and
thin with us, so let me create the space first and then figure out what is
already out there and being used later.
That way your science can keep going.
Thanks very much.
Suvendra.

Dear Suvendra, Jerry.
First of all, yes, indeed we will provide you with the graphics for your
website. I will have Mark Watson prepare something for you.
Much more importantly, there is a BIG ISSUE going on with space in
Oddyssey:
1. We don't have an easy accounting of how much space we have, as there is
no easy way of counting how much space do we use as a group.
2. Furthermore, after we did our own accounting, it seems we are not up to 1
TB, which the space that we have allocated.
3. The file system is right now practically full again. We had to stop
computiing again. So the question is: What groups are we sharing that
filesystem with, and if so, are they over their quota?
4. We are planning to move our less important data to the Thumber of the CDI
GPU project. Is that Raided? If so what RAID level is it at?
What would be very useful is a global space monitoring script that could
tell hourly or so how much space each user is employing and how are we doing
with our quota, and if others are sharing our partition, maybe moving one
group to another partition might be a good idea?
Looking forward to your feedback, and thank you as always :)
