Detailed usage by folder

Warning, at the moment this feature is only available on Béluga

You can get a break down by folder on how the data is consumed in your project space. Here is a walkthrough of how to look at the data where GROUP is the project space folder to investigate.

First list all the projects that you have access to:

 ls ~/projects/
    def-bourqueg  def-lathrop  def-poq-ab  rrg-bourqueg-ad  rrg-lathrop

Here i will look at the def-poq-ab project,

GROUP=def-poq-ab
duc ui -d /project/.duc_databases/${GROUP}.sqlite  /project/${GROUP}

This load a browser that state the volume under all directory three

Type q <esc> to quit, type h for help

If I am only interested in a /project/${GROUP} subfolder and do not want to navigate the whole tree in the ncurse ui,

duc ui -d /project/.duc_databases/${GROUP}.sqlite  /project/${GROUP}/some/subfolder/

While we recommend to use the standard ui mode in the cluster login node, a full graphical user interface (GUI) mode is also available.

First make sure you are connected to the cluster using ssh's -Y option

ssh -Y  poq@beluga.calculcanada.ca

Then make GUI appear

GROUP=def-poq-ab
duc gui -d /project/.duc_databases/${GROUP}.sqlite  /project/${GROUP}

You can navigate the folders with the mouse and type c to toggle between the size of the files and their numbers
