[Nek5000-users] Handling large data

[nek5000-users at lists.mcs.anl.gov]

Dear Nek devs,

     This is not a Nek5k specific question, but given your experience 
performing some massive simulations 
(https://nek5000.mcs.anl.gov/index.php/Visualization_Gallery) which must 
have generated a huge amount of data, could you maybe give some tips on 
how best to handle and organize data? Right now, I do the most naive 
thing possible: putting separate cases in different folders with the 
folder name indicating the parameters (case_X_para1_para2..) and 
constantly keep transferring the data (not a script!) to avoid filling 
up our quota in the cluster's hard disk.

I'd just like to know how things are done on the really big machines. 
Thanks!
