A quick guide:
Is the data a document, presentation or something which was manually created: Home space
Is the data a manually written script, .yaml
configuration file for the beamformer or input file for
FSL or similar:
Group space
Is the data some output from the YNiC beamformer, FSL etc: . Group scratch space for the group for which the analysis is being performed.
Is the data a final set of images (e.g. jpeg, png, tiff files) which is being placed in a paper: Group space or Home space depending on whether it is for a paper or a thesis write up.
The rationale behind the use of group space as opposed to personal space is that you will most likely want to give other people in your group access to the results of the analysis. If this is not the case, you should use the matching home area. Please note that you have much less space in your own personal scratch area and that we will not move files from either your home directory or your home scratch directory into the groups directory after you have left. This means that if you are leaving but other people are continuing to work on the project, you need to co-ordinate who has access to your analysis before you leave.
For most non-YNiC-staff, the Home scratch area should generally be used fairly sparingly.
