Starting scrub script on scratch file system /scratch/general/lustre on Friday, September 16th, 2016

Date Posted: August 30th, 2016

Since bringing the new /scratch/general/lustre file system on line this spring we have not been running any script that scrubs this scratch file system of files that have not been accessed in 60 days (CHPC policy on scratch file systems available at https://www.chpc.utah.edu/documentation/policies/3.1FileStoragePolicies.php.  We are now ready to start a scrub script on this file system, but wanted to announce this change so that any user who has older files which they need on the file system have an opportunity to move them elsewhere.

Starting on Friday September 16 the scrub script will automatically be run weekly.
