The data can be accessed from anywhere in the institution from the network (wired or wireless) of the ULG or CHU. To access data from the outside, you need to log to the ULg VPN.

==Terms of Use==
 
−
 
 
−
===Quota===
 
−
 
 
−
Each user has a '''personal space''' for storing their data. This space is currently limited to '''''100 GB per user'''''. This quota can be ''reviewed at any time'' by the GIGA.
 
−
 
 
−
Inside each user storage space are also found links to group spaces : Administration ('''ADM'''), Platforms ('''PTF''') and Research ('''URT''').  
 
−
 
 
−
These directories and their contents are subject to '''''separated quotas''''', depending on the different entities. Heads of departments are responsible for defining these quotas and the use of their shared files. ''These folders are accessible from each user's personal space via shortcuts to the different entities''.
 
−
 
 
−
Being in the ''user'' as well as the ''group'' space, they are all '''backuped every night''' '''''between 0 a.m. and 6 a.m.''''' meaning, ''in the cases listed under this paragraph'', you might accidentally '''create huge amount of computing work''' for the backup system and that would '''''result into an absence of it for at least one day'''''.
 
−
 
 
−
'''Any action on data that weights''' a lot might need some special attentions and/or '''contacting support''' before doing it, like for example:
 
−
* Renaming folders and/or files
 
−
* Copy and/or move data
 
−
* Change ownership and/or rights
 
−
* Add data
 
−
 
 
−
In that perspective has been created a special condition : If you create, ''anywhere'' and ''as much as you want'', a directory called '''nobackup''', everything in it will not be backuped and so won't disturb the whole process.
 
−
 
 
−
 
 
−
 
 
−
===Data===
 
−
 
 
−
 
 
−
Raw data originating from scientific and/or cluster computer cannot be transferred and/or stored in the GIGA storage space as it. It must be the subject of prior consultation with the System manager for the implementation of a specific action.
 
−
 
 
−
It is mandatory to encapsulate and compress ('''ZIP''', '''RAR''', '''TAR'''...) this data in a file to facilitate their management and processing by the storage servers.
 
−
 
 
−
Any filename with '''non-UTF-8 characters''' (''mostly for Windows users'') or '''special characters''' such as '''/\:*?"'<>|''' will not be included in the backup.
 
−
 
 
−
It is prohibited to create files or folders in '''/gpfs0''' nor in '''/gpfs0/home''' (Linked to '''/home/mass''')
 
  
−
The users' home directory '''''cannot be used as a temporary space for calculation or cluster document'''''. The number of files generated during the calculations (sometimes tens of thousands) could completely block the storage space. There is a computing space on the [[Grid]] to do this.

The scratch space ('''SCR''') is dedicated to the '''''temporary space of calculation'''''. This space ''will not be backup'' and if there is a problem of free space, it can be deleted of its contents to release space.
