Step 1  - Files not accessed for more than 100 days are moved from project directories on /scratch into a quarantine space. Once a file has been moved to quarantine it will no longer be accessible to its owner, the project, or to any HPC jobs run by the project or collaborating projects with read access, regardless of file permission settings. Note that quarantined files still count towards a project's quota, so lquota and nci_account commands will include them, but nci-files-report and du -sh commands will not.
