Filesystems:Frontenac

The Frontenac cluster uses a shared GPFS filesystem for all file storage. User files are located under /global/home of 3TB quota, shared project space under /global/project, and network scratch space under /global/scratch of 5TB quota. In addition to the network storage, each compute node has a 1.5TB local hard disk for fast access to local scratch space by jobs using the location specified by the $TMPDISK environment variable. All files in the local scratch space are assumed to be deleted automatically when corresponding jobs finish.
