For our larger groups, we'll meet with them regularly to discuss their space usage (and other IT needs). Even that's unlikely to be frequent enough, so we direct usage alerts to their designated "data manager" if they're getting close to running out of space.
Aside from regularly clearing out scratch space, though, we try to stay out of deletion decisions, to avoid problems stemming from miscommunication between the group and IT, or even within the group (left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing).<o:p></o:p></p>

<span lang="EN-US" style="color:#17365D">I was hoping to get some recommendations for Storage. Last year we set up our first HPC and I’m looking for a good strategy moving forward for Storage. We set up a dedicated space on the cluster for Storage that has
5.5 TB of space. This space can be quickly chewed up depending on the project the business is working on. Do you guys typically do a retention policy on the cluster to ensure there is always enough space? I was thinking anything older than a month should be
cleaned up. </span><span lang="EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
