SDSC intends to retain existing TeraGrid user data in SAM-QFS for at least four years (June 2013) to facilitate a smooth transition from TeraGrid to the follow-on XD program and to any subsequent programs for robust, longer-term archival storage. Existing storage allocations will be honored.

HPSS archival data for non-TeraGrid users will also be migrated to SAM-QFS. However, a recharge will be implemented for archival storage by non-TeraGrid users over the coming months, so please delete unwanted files prior to migration and retain only necessary data in anticipation of the recharge.

Further information about costs and schedule for this recharge will be provided to non-TeraGrid users as the information becomes available.
