Shared Data Guidelines

Important Notes:

Organize data clearly: create directories with descriptive and meaningful names.

Document your data in a README.md and in GitLab: https://gitlab.phaidra.org/imgw/computer-resources/-/tree/master/Data

Shared Data Policy:

Shared-data is for data used by multiple users only. It is not a personal scratch space.

Only data that is truly shared and actively used should reside here.

To add shared data, request a transfer and provide sufficient information about the dataset to make it fully reproducible.

Once approved, the data will be transferred, reducing your personal quota.

Users cannot create or delete files or directories in shared-data directly. To add, modify, or remove data, contact the administrators.

Working with the Data:

Copy data to your scratch space for any changes or analyses.

Remove duplicates from scratch when done to save storage.

Permissions

Users are no longer the owners of files or directories

Folders: 755 → rwxr-xr-x → owner can read/write/execute, others can read/execute

Files: 644 → rw-r--r-- → owner can read/write, others can read
