 ### Storage solutions
 * HPC Isilon storage.  
 This is fast storage for direct acces to your data on the cluster, which can be purchased from the IT&DI department through [Topdesk](https://topdesk.lumc.nl). Once purchased this storage will be NFS v4 mounted on all the nodes on the cluster. The default mountpoint will be **/exports/<storage-share-name>**.  
-Access to this mountpoint is handeld by an Active Directory group. The default mount access rights are set by an Ansible playbook. To grant users access to this share you need to have them added to the Active Directory group attached to the share. To find out which group is attached to your data storage use the following command `ls -aldh /exports/<storage-share-name> | awk '{print $4}'`

 * research LTS Isilon storage  
 This is slow storage for archiving data which can be purchased from the IT&DI department through [Topdesk](https://topdesk.lumc.nl). Once purchased this storage will be NFS v4 mounted on all the execution/gpu/mem nodes on the cluster with read only access, on the login nodes you wil have read and write access.

 This BeeGFS is faster compared to the HPC Isilon if you have a lot of small files and do a lot of read write operations.  
 This storage is a so called **scratch space**, everyone can use this BeeGFS scratch space for **staging** your data. Please **do not** use this scratch space for **storage**.  
 The HPC Isilon and the LTS Isilon are for storage, the BeeGFS is only for staging.
