Sun Aug 11 21:55:06 - TCS can be used by those groups which have /reserved1 space. Use /reserved1 to run jobs as you would hve with the old /scratch (which we are still trying to recover)
Sun Aug 11 21:49:03 - GPC is available for use. There is no /scratch or /project filesystem as we are still trying to recover them. You can use /scratch2 to run jobs in exactly the same way as the old scratch (however the environment variable is $SCRATCH2). New policies for /scratch2 are being set but for now each user is limited to 10TB and 1 million files. /home is unscathed.
Sun Aug 11 15:35:32 - We are implementing a contingency plan for access by GPC users. Should be available within a few hours. There will be a new scratch2 filesystem that can be used for submitting and running jobs. TCS users may have to wait another day for a fix (it is technically impossible to mount the new /scratch2 on the TCS). Unfortunately, nobody will be able to access the original /scratch or /project space and the timeline for attempting to fix and recover those filesystems is virtually impossible to judge (have to deal with new problems as they crop-up and there's no way to know how many problems lie ahead).
