Dear Jean Zay user,
As part of the renewal of the storage spaces accompanying the H100 extension of Jean Zay, the current SCRATCH disk space will be permanently shutdown on Tuesday, September 3rd, 2024.
As previously announced, there will be no automatic copy of the current SCRATCH space to the new one.
To anticipate this shutdown, we invite you to migrate as soon as possible the data you wish to keep to the new space already accessible through the $NEWSCRATCH (or $ALL_CCFRNEWSCRATCH for the common project spaces) and to use that disk space in your jobs by modifying your submission scripts accordingly.
The data transfers can be done using one or more jobs on the "archive" partition, or interactively from the login nodes if the volume to be transferred is limited: http://www.idris.fr/eng/jean-zay/modifications-extension-jean-zay-h100-eng.html#scratch_et_all_scratch_copies.
In order to avoid confusions between the different disk spaces and facilitate the monitoring of the migration operation, we suggest that you remove any data that you will not need anymore or that you have already successfully migrated.
Please be aware that the new SCRATCH space is also subject to the 30 day deletion policy of the unused data.
Best regards, The IDRIS support team
