My storage quota was full

My storage quota was full. I deleted data, but I still can’t write!

If you use your entire high performance storage quota, you must delete 5% of your quota before you can write again. For example, if you have a 60 TB storage quota and you fill it, you must delete at least 3 TB before you can write files again.

Is my data safe on MSI systems? Do I need backups?
Knowledge base

You should always maintain backups of critical data! However, MSI follows best practices in protecting your data from loss or corruption, and in general your data is quite safe -- about as safe as any other data you might have stored in the cloud, and much safer than the hard drive in the computer on your desk.Both the High Performance Primary Storage (Panasas) and the Second Tier Storage (Ceph) are protected by a RAID-like system so that data is not lost if some of the hard disks in our system fail.
