need to access files from previous TACC directory

Access https://web.corral.tacc.utexas.edu/CAS/ - primarily to delete DNG files that do not need to be stored on TACC

From email with Christopher Jordan at TACC regarding #8543:

Looks like the Arctos allocation has run out of space. There is 10TB allocated to it and for a very long time it has only been about half used so I'm assuming there's some significant recent usage growth.

Previously, CHAS uploaded DNG media to Arctos and made JPGs from the derived images. In light of the fact that there has been significant use recently, we want to 1) remove those files to free up space and 2) have access to those media files regardless, in case we need to make any changes to metadata, file name, etc.

Our current TACC directory was set up in December 2021, after I first started. Anything uploaded to TACC prior to that date is currently inaccessible to staff.

I agree you should be able to manage your own files but if you did not feel like you have the constraint of space, would you prefer to keep your DNGs online? (i.e. your usage is not the problem)
