Aliases for Home directory and Project spaces
The following aliases have been made available for users, we advise using them in place of file paths to the project space or home directory wherever possible. They can be utilized on login nodes and within job scripts.
| Location | File path | Environment Variable | Shell Alias |
|---|---|---|---|
| User Home Directory | /users/*/INTERNETID | $HOME | cd |
| Primary Project Directory | /projects/standard/PROJECT_NAME | $MSIPROJECT | msiproject |
| Primary Project Shared | /projects/standard/PROJECT_NAME/shared | $SHARED | shared |
| Old Home Directory1 | /projects/standard/PROJECT_NAME/INTERNETID | $OLDHOME | oldhome |
| Scratch Global | /scratch.global/ | $SCRATCH $SCRATCH_GLOBAL | scratch |
| Scratch Local2 | /scratch.local/ | $SCRATCH_LOCAL | scratch.local |
- Users that joined before September 2024 maintenance will have an old home directory, all new users will not have one generated. We would recommend creating a work directory in the Project shared directory.
- Local Scratch is only available if requested during a job with the --tmp flag
