Project Storage

This is granted to all Supercomputing, Nimbus and Visualisation projects. If you have an approved Pawsey project then you are already eligible for a 1TB allocation on this resource, which is shared amongst all project members. If you require more than 1TB, but less than 10TB, please email an appropriate request to the Pawsey helpdesk. If you require more than 10TB, then you will need to submit an application for Managed Storage, see below. Project storage is currently provisioned on warm tier storage.

Private Storage

All members of Pawsey compute and visualisation projects are also granted a private storage quota of 100GB, that is not automatically shared with other members. This allocation is currently not expandable. Private storage is currently provisioned on warm tier storage.

Managed Storage

This service covers storage requirements that exceed the maximum project storage amount as well as other collaborative use-cases that require sharing research data. The high-level metadata for approved managed storage allocations (description, FoR codes, etc) will be publicly available according to FAIR principles. Managed storage is also subject to periodic reviews to ensure Pawsey capacity is being efficiently utilised. While we encourage the data itself to be eventually made public (under appropriate licensing) access is private by default and under the control of the project owner.

Apply

To submit a new managed storage application, or check on the status of an existing one, go to the application portal

Log in to the application portal using your AAF institutional credentials (eg University or CSIRO.) If you do not have AAF credentials (eg Australian Government Department) you will need to create an account on the application portal using your official contact email address. This account is only for applications and cannot be used to access Pawsey data or compute resources.

Approval

After you submit a managed storage application, the assessment length will depend on the size of the request. For requests that are substantially under a PB the approval and provisioning process should take no longer than 2-3 weeks. For very large requests, approval from the Pawsey board may be required which can take much longer.
