Home Directories#

Your home directories are located at /pasteur/appa/homes/ and are limited to 100 GB, which can't be extended. You can use this fast filesystem for your calculations directly. Once you are done, please move the output and the unique data to your project space (see below).

The former Gaia home is still accessible from the submit node maestro.pasteur.fr only (not the nodes), under the path /pasteur/gaia/homes/<yourlogin>. As a consequence, you can't submit jobs referring to this path.

Storage spaces located on Gaia are not accessible from the cluster#

Gaia storage spaces other than the home are not available on the cluster. That is:

  • Gaia entity spaces,
  • Gaia project spaces

can be accessed from Maestro.

Project spaces on Zeus storage#

Zeus is currently the main storage server for project spaces. Each project leader (PI) has 20 non-replicated-TB/10-replicated-TB as follows:

  • replicated (if you are not familiar with data replication, feel free to have a look at it here) are located under /pasteur/zeus/projets/p01/,
  • non-replicated, but regularly backed up and accessible under /pasteur/zeus/projets/p02/.
  • You can get more information here.

The request for the creation or the extension of a project space must be made by the PI of the unit/G5 or his/her deputy through the forms entitled:

  • Espace de stockage - Création
  • Espace de stockage - Modification des membres et taille de l'espace

accessible from the Service Catalog.

You can ask the Storage team to move/copy the data for you into that new project space. In that case, please add the list of Gaia directories

To transfer data from Gaia to Zeus, please have a look at this page.
