Storage FAQs
Accidental File Deletions Why Lease Storage Leased Storage Options File Transfer with Globus Permission Denied Error with Globus Help! I deleted my files accidentally! What can I do? Your home directory contains a hidden directory .snapshot which is not visible even with ls -a. Change into that directory to find timestamped versions of your home directory. Snapshots are created once per day. For GPFS Research Project (leased) storage, the directory is /gpfs/gpfs0/project/.snapshots. For non-GPFS Research Project storage, the directory is /project/.snapshot. Neither Research Standard (leased) nor Rivanna/Afton scratch storage is backed up in any way. Why should I lease storage?
