Lustre stores all project metadata in sub-directories of the main project directory, Project Home. The metadata is saved per scene, each scene having its sub-directory. The sub-directory is created automatically and is named sacc_data.
Original footage and render files, both full and half resolution, can be stored per scene in the Project Home directory, or they can be stored in separate directories, as decided at project configuration. When directories are not located in Project Home, they can be located on another drive, mount point, or even on a remote SAN or file server. Select the location that best suits your hardware configuration. For example, if you work on one project at a time, you may have enough space to store all footage on the Master Station. If you are working on multiple projects, you may not have the required space on the Master Station; in this case, you could store your full scans and render files on a large remote server, and store the half-resolution scans locally.
The following tables provide examples of each of these possible scenarios.
