We would like to remind you about scratch storage policy on Hive. Scratch is designed for temporary storage and is never backed up. Each week, files not modified for more than 60 days are automatically deleted from your scratch directory. As part of Hive’s start-up, regular cleanup of scratch has now been implemented. Each week, users with files set to be deleted receive a warning email about files to be deleted in the coming week, with additional information included. Those of you who use the main PACE system are already familiar with this workflow.
Some of you received such an email yesterday. As always, if you need additional time to migrate valuable data off of scratch, please respond to the email as directed to request a delay.
Please contact us at pace-support@oit.gatech.edu with any questions about how to manage your data stored on Hive.
