Start-up of the Scrubber on Jean

Dear ARL DSRC Jean User,

Per BCT policy, files on the $WORKDIR file system that have not been accessed for 30 days will be removed. To enforce this BCT policy, a scrubber will be implemented on the TI-20 Jean system on Friday, March 20, 2026. Users are encouraged to use their scratch space efficiently and economically by proactively removing files and directories from $WORKDIR that are no longer required for current or near-term processing. Users are responsible for saving their files for long-term storage to either archival space ($ARCHIVE_HOME) or home directory space ($HOME).

If you have any questions about this informational message, please contact the HPC Help Desk via any of the following methods:

Thank you,
