Yes, definitely need the space and assistance modifying scripts to utilize data capacitor at UI (  if for no other reason that it sounds cools to say "I'm using a data capacitor" : )  ).

Re: 
Store

in

Data 
Capacitor?]

A 
week 
ago 
I 
started 
to 
help 
MikeK 
find 
several 
TB 
of 
free 
space 
to 
support 
his 
next 
round 
of 
workflows.

Currently 
the 
CI 
SAN 
has 
only 
700GB 
free.

I 
started 
looking 
at 
how 
to 
use 
the 
500TB 
data 
capacitor 
server 
at 
IU.

MikeK, 
should 
we 
assume 
you 
still 
need 
this, 
test 
access 
to 
it, 
and 
give 
you 
the 
parameters 
for 
your 
sites 
file, 
and 
swift 
examples 
of 
mapping 
data 
to/from 
GridFTP 
URIs?

If 
so, 
Mihael 
can 
you 
do 
this? 
(URL 
for 
the 
DC 
is 
below. 
Can 
use 
scratch 
space 
for 
2-week 
stretches. 
Ive 
applied 
for 
an 
allocation 
on 
it).

- 
Mike

10TB 
would 
be 
plenty.

I've 
been 
using 
Benoit's 
allocation.

The 
TG 
project 
ID 
I've 
been 
using 
is:

TG-MCA01S018

Thanks
