ARCHIVED: On Webserve, how much disk storage space is available to me?

This content has been archived, and is no longer maintained by Indiana University. Information here may no longer be accurate, and links may no longer be available or reliable.

There is no absolute limit to the disk storage space for accounts on Webserve (www.indiana.edu, www.iupui.edu, www.iun.edu, www.iuk.edu, and www.iue.edu) at Indiana University. Accounts for university organizations, departments, and faculty may use an average of 1 GB per year for free; auxiliary services are charged $250 per year for a 1 GB account. In both cases, additional 1 GB blocks are available for $2 each per year. Averages are calculated yearly, and any charges are made to the departmental account number you provided.

For information about the disk use average for your Webserve account, contact the IU Webmaster.

To see how much space your Webserve account is currently using, log into the account. At the prompt, enter:

 du -sk

The Disk Usage Summary displays your usage in kilobytes (remember that 1 MB = 1,024 KB and 1 GB = 1,024 MB).

Billing is based on your account's average use of disk space from the beginning of the fiscal year, July 1, through April 15. Any charges incurred will appear on your May Statement of Accounts.
