 +===== /userapps =====

 +Since ''/scratch'' is optimized for large files, storing software (which normally consists of a set of many small files) on ''/scratch'' is not recommended. For large or shared software installations a NFS based file system share has been setup, which is available as ''/userapps''. <wrap important>Since we assume that most software installations use downloads from external sites (like e.g. Python virtual environments) we do not make a backup of ''/userapps''!</wrap>
 +
 +Please contact [[hpc@rug.nl]] if you need additional space on ''/userapps'' for your installations, or when you need to share your software stack with multiple users. For the latter you should answer the questions for a group directory above.
