All neuro-related datasets are now on SCC.

Workstation storage policy changes

As we migrate all datasets to SCC storage, we will implement a storage restriction on the workstations. A final decision has not been made yet, but every lab member will be allowed ~150GB to discourage dataset duplication while allowing a reasonable amount of working space.

All datasets in the lab should follow the BIDS standard if datatype makes sense (e.g. MRI, PET, but not necessarily tabular data).

Read/Write access to datasets on the workstations

By default everyone has read access to the datasets, but to prevent accidents only members of the dataset-editors are allowed do write (or delete) from the dataset directory. To check if you are in this group, look at the output of

$ groups

If you have sudo access and need to add a user to the group, use

$ sudo usermod -aG dataset-editors user
