User Directories
The following directories are available to each user. The home and scratch directories are globally available within the cluster. Additionally, each compute node contains a 1.4 TB NVMe drive that is exclusively used as temporary fast local storage. This temp space is immediately cleaned upon completion of each job.
| File System | Directory | Environment Variable | Quota | Availability |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Home | /home/$USER | $HOME | 50 GB | All nodes |
| Scratch | /scratch/user/$USER | $SCRATCH | 200 GB | All nodes |
| Tmp | /tmp/job.$SLURM_JOBID | $TMPDIR | None — shared 1.4 TB per node | Current node only |
Scratch storage is not backed up. Only /home directories are backed up daily. Do not store long-term data in scratch.
