If you are over quota in the ``scratch`` area and need more space please email [email protected] where we can increase your quota. **There is a grace period of 7 days after which you will lose access to Viking.**

.. tip::

If you receive a warning that you have exceeded the 400,000 file limit in your home directory and would like a summary of where all the files are located, try this command:

.. code-block:: console

cd ~ && ls -1d */ .*/ | grep -vE 'scratch|\./|\.\./' | xargs du --inodes -s

This should provide a breakdown of the number of files (technically, file descriptors, also known as ``inodes``) by (top level) directory. If you don't mind waiting for all the results to be sorted try the folllowing command:

.. code-block:: console

cd ~ && ls -1d */ .*/ | grep -vE 'scratch|\./|\.\./' | xargs du --inodes -s | sort -n
