Governance Policy for Research Storage

Greetings,

Are there any folks here who can provide examples of a governance policy for research storage?

Thank you,
Mohamad Qayoom

There’s definitely no set in stone set of rules, but I can share our policy for the sherlock cluster, specifically:

  • how filesystems map to groups
  • purge policy
  • backups / snapshots
  • quotas

Is that what you mean by governance? (It might help to clarify this for others). With respect to our oak storage it must be bought by the same groups, and I think that the same permissions apply. You’d have to ask someone in my group for details, I don’t know.
