${FS} depends on your sectionNote 2: There will be no charge for relocated data (from unixfs/winfs) until further notice (right of continuance, "Bestandsschutz")

Option 1: Delete (unnecessary data)

What is not needed anymore can be deleted with the Windows Explorer or rm -rf /<YOUR_DIRECTORY>

Option 2: /netscratch (Temporary data)
Features: 50 TB space available for up to 90 days (automatically deleted afterwards) at 
  • smb:\\smb.isibhv.dmawi.de\netscratch\public (Windows/MacOS/Linux) known as public in Windows
  • /isibhv/netscratch (Linux)

Option 3: Tape Archive (HSM, cold data)

Features: Cheap (nearly) unlimited space available, two data copies in building D and E for security reasons.
Documentation:  HSM (hssrv1): Archiving (and storing) Data (hsm.dmawi.de)

Note 1:  In case of a disaster (e.g., building E burns down) it might take some weeks/months to recover all data.

Option 4: Isilon (online data)

Features: Fast central network storage, daily snapshots (kept for six month, protection against user errors), erasure coding (protection against hardware failure), replication partially to Potsdam/Bremerhaven or HSM (protection against facility disaster)

Note 1: "isibhv" indicates the Isilon in Bremerhaven. For Potsdam this would be "isipd".
Note 2: The personal data (4a) is replicated to the Isilon at the other location (Bremerhaven/Potsdam).
Note 3: The project data (4b) can be replicated to the HSM or not (your choice in https://cloud.awi.de/#/projects), so data can be restored in case of a disaster.
Note 4: Data on the Isilon is accessible from (parts of) ollie and could be processed using HPC.

Option 5: Nextcloud ( Fileshareing with internal and external user )

Features: Filesharing and collaborative working on office files (collabora online). User can share files with users that are external users without an account. Every user has 1GB of nextcloud storage quota and up to 100GB on SMB share (Option 4a). For the SMB shares nextcloud is like a bridge to the data. You can also get access via network drive on your window file browser.

EXTERNAL STORAGE

Shares Mountable directories(Projects must be mouted by an administrator)
smb://smb.isibhv.dmawi.deprojects, personal/<username>, projects-dmz
smb://smb.isipd.dmawi.de

Backup / Restore data

The backup is handled by the ISILON itself. To restore files you can use on Windows filesystems the option "previous versions" to get older backups. You can also get your files online in the nextcloud environment. To do so you need to modify your URL.

Connect Projects

When you create a project and get storage from cloud.awi.de, you can access the file on your storage via nextcloud.

Internal Storage

/var/www/nextcloud/dataQuota of 1GB per user

Backup / Restore data

The data is backed up via VMWARE. A backup is created once a night. It is possible to restore individual files. This can take some time because the VMWARE administrator has to restore the files from the backup.
