[NLPL Task Force (A)] [sigma at uninett.no #180417] saga pilot testing

[Stephan Oepen]

hi again, joern,

> Notice that we anticipate Saga to provide project storage similar to what is offered on Fram: A project on Fram will have a 1-10 TB project directory in /cluster/projects/nnxxxxk. Additionally, a community might have a community directory in /cluster/shared, for instance /cluster/shared/nlpl in your case. I assume this directory also should be accompanied with an nlpl group, and that you administer membership in this group.

i am delighted to hear that the saga pilot is expected to open next
week!  i know some of our doctoral students have their plans ready for
how to put the new gpus to use over the summer :-).

i expect they will quickly ask for the NLPL software and data
ecosystem.  are you ready to set us up with the community directory
'/cluster/shared/nlpl/' (preferably initially of at least four
terabytes)?  even if mechanisms may not immediately be in place for me
to administer group membership, could write access orginally be
controlled to a group 'nlpl' (or similar), with 'oe' and 'andreku' in
it?

finally, what email address do you recommend we use for support
requests regarding the saga pilot?

with thanks in advance, oe
