	The bwForCluster ~~[https://www.binac.uni-tuebingen.de~~ BinAC] consists of two separate storage systems, one for the user's home directory <tt>$HOME</tt> and one serving as a work space. The home directory is limited in space and parallel access but offers snapshots of your files and Backup. The work space is a parallel file system which offers fast and parallel file access and a bigger capacity than the home directory. This storage is based on [https://www.beegfs.com/ BeeGFS] and can be accessed parallel from many nodes. Additionally, each compute node provides high-speed temporary storage (SSD) on the node-local solid state disk via the <tt>$TMPDIR</tt> environment variable.

	Work spaces can be generated through the <tt>workspace</tt> tools. This will generate a directory on the parallel storage with a limited lifetime. When this lifetime is reached the work space will be deleted automatically after a grace period. Work spaces can be extended to prevent deletion. You can create reminders and calendar entries to prevent accidental removal.		Work spaces can be generated through the <tt>workspace</tt> tools.

	To create a work space you'll need to supply a name for your work space area and a lifetime in days.		To create a work space you'll need to supply a name for your work space area and a lifetime in days.
