Data Retention on Lustre

Your can lose access to your data on Lustre in either of the following ways.

  1. You fail to read the data for at least one year - with the exceptions of any (relative path) directories opt and conda-envs.
  1. The user ID of Principal Investigator (PI) associated with the data is no longer active.

Data inactivity

If any given data on Lustre has not been read in 1 year or more - with the exceptions of directories opt and conda-envs, then the owner and their PI will receive an email notification regarding data inactivity with a 30-day response window before data access removal. All access to the given data will be removed for 30-days prior to purging. (For example, see last access times in the results of the commands ls -l —time-style=iso and man ls.)

Afterward, within the 30-day period, you can submit a request for Cypress HPC Consultation to have access to your data on Lustre restored. Your request will be completed subject to the approval of your Principal Investigator (PI).

Inactive Tulane Status of Principal Investigator

If the Tulane email/LDAP status of the PI associated with any given data on Lustre has become “inactive”, then action similar to the above will be taken for the given data on Lustre.

For further assistance, please submit a request for Cypress HPC Consultation.
