Resource Limits

Storage Resource Limits​

Home directory​

Each user receives a /home directory with a quota of 100GiB.

Scratch directory​

/scratch/[asurite] is available to all users without a quota. As a publicly-shared resource however, there are limits to the scratch capacity. To help keep this resource highly-available, there are time limits on unused data: data must be used actively for computation or should be moved to long-term storage (project or home).
