Hello,

Would it be possible to increase my disk quota on Archer2 work space to 3Tb?

I’m trying to run some UKESM simulations for the VSLS-MIP activity.

My username is emb66.

Many thanks!

Ewa

Hi Annette,

Thank you so much!

On a follow up note - any change we could increase that further to 5TB? I’ve realized the simulations occupy more space than I initially estimated, and this would help me by letting me finish parts of the simulations first before moving them somewhere else for storage (as opposed to copying data off as they run).

Many thanks!

Hi Ewa,

I have increased your quota as requested. There is not a huge amount of space on the n02 work disk, so please do move data to external storage when you can.
