Overquota
Informations about the quota system
Quota limit exceeded
The space on our central user directory servers is limited for every user. This affects all files in your /home/ directory.
When you have exceeded your quota, please remove files as soon as possible 8but definitely within 6 days). Among other things, you can:
- empty the bin
- remove old files
- empty the Browser cache (Firefox, Chrome, etc.)
- move large files to the local hard drive (directory /scratch/) - please note that there will be no backups of such files and they will only be available locally or per SSH
By using the programm baobab (type into the program search bar) you can observe your quota usage at any time. Alternatively, use quota -s in the terminal.
If you have any further questions or problems, please contact us via mail.
