Excerpt

There are multiple filesystems mounted to each of Pawsey's supercomputers. Each of these filesystems are designed for particular use cases. This page provides a detailed description of these filesystems.

...

The software filesystem is intended for software installations and Slurm batch script templates. Each project has an associated directory, /software/projects/<project>, with a quota of 256 GB per project. (More can be allocated upon justified request.) Within the project directory, each project member has a subdirectory, /software/<projects>/<project>/<username>, with a limit of 100,000 individual files per user.

...

All members of a project have read and write access to the /software/projects/<project> directory, so it can be used for sharing software installations and batch script templates within a project. Your allocation of space on /software exists for the duration of the project and is not subject to any automatic purging.

...

Reference data sets are static data required by software for calibrations or testing or as widely used input data. Reference data sets that are used by several project groups will be provided on /scratch by Pawsey to avoid multiple copies existing. These data sets will be contained in subdirectories of /scratch/referencereferences.

Examples include:

  • /scratch/referencereferences/askap 
  • /scratch/referencereferences/mwa 
  • /scratch/referencereferences/blastblastdb_update  

These reference datasets will be exempt from the /scratch  purge policy.

The specific bioinformatics reference datasets available are:

  • Arabidopsis thaliana
  • Blast+ database (regularly updated)
  • Human Broad bundle hg19, Broad bundle hg38, and GRCh38
  • Mouse Broad bundle mm10, NCBI MM10, UCSC GRCm38, RNA M25
  • Qiime
  • Diamond

If you would like to request addition of a new reference dataset, please email the Pawsey Helpdesk help@pawsey.org.au
