Before you go ahead: my overall feeling is that like for all our documents the granularity is a bit unclear. For example in Project there's some really minor steps while the first point of Monitor include a lot of commands. I've outlined below a few suggestions also indicating what I think are prerequisites #pq or there might be an overlap -> It's just an example to explain what I think might be a more even granularity rather then a comment on content.
- Pre-requisite: Using projects at NCI
- Pre-requisite: Filesystems at NCI
- Pre-requisire: Project accounting at NCI
- Find and join the appropriate CLEx project
- Know the resource management processes for this project
- Determining resources required, e.g. running model, analysing data
- Compute resources (KSU)
- Storage resources (GB): short term (
/short
), medium term (/gdata
) and archive (mdss
)
- Contact project coordinator with resource request as required # (isn't a bit redudant? they should have started a dialogue already)
- Review of the tools available to you
- NCI tools
- CLEx tools
- bash commands
- Pre-requisite: Filesystems at NCI
- More on correct use of NCI filesystems
- Managing file ownership and permissions
- File compression
- Prepare data for safe keeping over medium term or longer:
- what can be deleted
- documentation
- tarring
- Transfer the data:
- across filesystems
- from/to remote server
- from/to tape
