Important locations

Below is an overview of locations Ponyland users visit often. If you want to know more about the various disks these locations are on (for example, how much space is left there), use the command df -h.

TL;DR where do I store my data?

Location	Accessibility	Speed	Amount of space
/home/user	easily accessible from every pony	slow reading and writing	limited space
/vol/tensusers(2-5)/user	accessible from every pony	slow reading and writing	several TBs free
/scratch/user	different for every pony	fast reading and writing	space free differs per pony

Full overview

Path	Disk name	Description
~	lv-00 and lv-01	Your home directory. Home directories are small, and should only be used for scripts and other small things. Not for custom installations of software. For this, please use /vol/tensusers.
/scratch	Individual machine	These disks are local, so their content is not shared with other machines. This disk can be used to temporarily write files that only exist during your experiment, or if you need fast IO for your experiments, you can store your data locally. Space is limited so please be considerate.

/vol/bigdata/corpora2	bigdata2-srv	More corpora
/vol/bigdata/datasets	bigdata-srv	Datasets
