11.1 | 3 | If you bring a USB-drive, you may sync the data onto it during the beamtime. We provide a dedicated PC for this purpose, which is running debian. It is advisable to bring a drive which is known to work fast on Linux systems, as some chipsets might be too slow to keep up with the speed at which you take data. Please also note, that ExFAT is currently not supported. FAT32, NTFS, ext4 should all work fine. |

16.1 | 9 | * The core file system /asap3/petra3/gpfs/p11/<YEAR>/data/<BEAMTIME>. This is the way we recommend as it has several advantages. You will need to log in with a (% style="color:#172b4d" %) (%%)[[DESY Science Account>>https://xwiki.desy.de/xwiki/bin/view/FSEC/FS-IT%20Topics/Science%20Accounts/||rel="nofollow" shape="rect" style="text-decoration: none;"]] which was added to the beamtimes authorized list by the PI(% style="color:#172b4d" %). |
| 10 | * (% style="color:#172b4d" %)The beamline file system /gpfs/current/. You may log in as p11user to do this. Any data resulting from manual processing done on the Maxwell resource will not be visible here and thus not be contained in your backup. As soon as the next user group starts and your beamtime is closed, you will have to stop copying. | ||
