Hello,

I am running a fully-coupled UKESM suite (suiteid: u-cq598) on ARCHER2 and hit the disk quota exceeded error:

BUFFOUT: Write Failed: Disk quota exceeded

I checked on SAFE that I have exceeded the /work directory disk quota (100GB). I have stored some start dump files and keeping only one running suite in the /cylc-run directory. May I know if it is possible to increase my quota in the work directory?

Many thanks,  
May
