UMIACS Archives
UMIACS archives data for a period of 5 years.
What we generally do archive:
- the primary drive from UMIACS-supported machines with persistent local data (Windows/macOS only)
- accounts that are closed (including metadata, network home directories, and GitLab repositories)
- retired non-scratch, non-project storage spaces (network home directories)
What we generally do not archive:
/tmp
and/scratch
directories (as discussed on our page about data storage)- Temporary project directories
- External drives that were attached to a UMIACS-supported machine
- Data that migrated forward from one UMIACS-supported machine to a new UMIACS-supported machine
- Data that was handed off into the care of the end-user or PI via external drive
- Data from drives that failed and was not under backup protection (unavailable for us to archive)
- Any data from self-supported machines
