Storage names on SRC can't have capital letters #170

Open BSchilperoort opened 1 week ago

If you create drives with capital letters, and enter those drive names on the workspace creator with caps you get the following situation:

bschilpero@localhost:/$ ls /data/
datasets  storageRolfeWaterCycle2_3_1DevCache  storagerolfewatercycle2_3_1devcache
shared    storageRolfeWaterCycle2_3_1DevHome   storagerolfewatercycle2_3_1devhome

Where the lowercase drives are the storage items that are mounted to the machine, and the drives with capital letters are the paths that the Ansible script expected the drives to be.

I guess this changed in the SRC backend @sverhoeven ?

Solution: strip out capital letters from drive paths in Ansible script. Or make this clear in the instructions.

@RolfHut this is the issue you encountered on Eline's machine

thanks, I will work with the "don't use capital letters!" solution for now, but adding this to the instructions would help indeed.
