going to try to get a file size estimate
Either this is already cleared out, or the server isn't returning much. Will someone else please have a look and give me a sanity check?
Parts of this are described in the following issues
@erikfriesen it is actually full of data, its just a twisty maze of symbolic links which is why the size reports so weird.
example SAGE_III is full of symbolic links to /distribution/SAGE_III which is full of big files
ah, i see. du -h
just finished. It estimated 144TB.
Not sure why my first run of it returned so little.
well, I have nowhere near 144 TB of storage, so here's hoping someone else has a good connection and lots of space
It could be broken up
I've started downloading ftp://l5eil01.larc.nasa.gov/VBBE/ but am still slogging through ftp://l5eil01.larc.nasa.gov/VBBE/VBEMI2AE.002 This could take awhile, as I'm also running projects for NCDC and NCEI issues that have not yet been claimed, and my connection is pretty slow, even with ethernet
I am breaking this ticket up into parts, standby for new ticket. Please post under: #337, containing tickets to all other subsets
/VBBE/ is being tracked at #349
ftp://l5eil01.larc.nasa.gov
Not sure how much, if any, of this directory is replicated elsewhere, but I can imagine that these datasets are at high risk
