Server Disk Usage

To increase security and reduce risk, Stanford is sunsetting its WebAFS service that is used to upload and download files to AFS.

To optimize AFS and make sure it is serving its intended functions, UIT has also taken these actions:

  • UIT no longer automatically provisions new faculty and staff members with AFS user volumes. New faculty or staff who need a personal user volume must submit a Help request.
    • This change does not impact existing AFS directories or the process for adding permissions for new individuals to those existing directories. Your existing space and everything in it remains intact.
    • This change does not impact the auto-provisioning of new AFS user volumes for students and postdocs.

​Class volumes do not expire and are kept indefinitely. This is an official academic policy, and any change to this policy must be considered by the Faculty Senate.

Each rectangle represents a partition on an AFS server. The space filled in green represents data stored on the server, the space in blue represents the available space. The red line represents the 85% full mark, which we strive to keep all partitions below. If a server's disk utilization should cross the 85% line, the blue rectangle will be replaced by a red rectangle, indicating a warning condition; the servers are configured to notify AFS personnel when this happens. Under normal circumstances, an AFS Server exceeding 85% disk usage should not affect AFS file service at all.

Servers not appearing in this report are not currently responding to queries, which likely means they are down for service or rebuilding. If a server you expect to be up does not appear, it may be down.
