* '''SLURM_TMPDIR''': While a job is running, <code>$SLURM_TMPDIR</code> is a unique path to a temporary folder on a local fast filesystem on each compute node reserved for the job. This is the best location to temporarily store large collections of small files (< 1 MB per file). Note: this space is shared between jobs on each node, and the total available space depends on the node specifications. Finally, when the job ends, this folder is deleted.

While the command '''diskusage_report''' gives the space and inode usage per user on ''home'' and ''scratch'', it shows the total usage of the group on project. Since the files that belong to a given user could be all over the place under project, it is difficult to get a break down per user and per given project in case a user has access to more than one project. However, a user can get an estimation of his space and inode usage on the entire project file system by running the command:
