Taiga is accessible via Globus at the endpoint name "NCSA Taiga" and the endpoint is open to the public internet for transfers from anywhere with another Globus endpoint.  Authentication to the endpoint is handled by NCSA's CILogon service and requires two-factor via Duo.  For shared collections, or other questions submit a ticket to help+globus@ncsa.illinois.edu.  Information about Globus can be found at their site https://www.globus.org

NFS

Information on this access method is coming soon.Native mounts of Taiga using the Lustre client are greatly preferred for superior performance and increased stability, however sub-directories of Taiga can be mounted via NFS in cases where that is necessary.  The NFS service is accessed via the HA taiga-nfs.ncsa.illinois.edu endpoint.  The NFS endpoint is currently comprised of 4 servers that are directly connected to the 100GbE public-facing storage network and via redundant links to Taiga's HDR Infiniband core fabric.   If you need an NFS export please file a ticket with the STO: Taiga component flag and the storage team will assist in getting the exported provisioned.  

Data Recovery

Snapshots (Coming Soon)

Snapshots are run on Taiga once per day, and are retained for a 14 day period.  The creation of new and removal of old snapshots is run automatically without intervention, it is not possible to recover deleted data from more than 14 days prior.  Users wishing to recover data from snapshots should open a ticket with the storage team.
