Filesystems

Each user will have the following filesystems available to them on the hii.rc.usf.edu or hii2.rc.usf.edu head node and all compute nodes within HII-HPC Cluster.

The filesystems are backed by GPFS, the General Parallel File System, used by many HPC clusters to provide scaleable I/O for large computational workloads.

Home

  • Path: /home/<fi>/<netid> (e.g. /home/d/dvader/)
  • Description: Home directory, accessible from the shell via cd $HOME or cd ~.

Work

  • Path: /hii/work/<fi>/<netid> (e.g. /hii/work/d/dvader/)
  • Description: Computational work directory for temporary filesets generated through research and analysis pipelines.

Group Share

  • Path: /shares/hii-<group_name>/ (e.g. /shares/hii-jedi/)
  • Description: Shared group directory.

Note: Your shared team directory (e.g. /shares/hii-jedi) is configured so files and folders created will be owned by the user and the user’s group affiliation (e.g. dvader:hii-jedi instead of dvader:dvader).
