The 91色情片 Data Archive is a storage facility for all 91色情片 researchers (staff and HDR candidates).
The Data Archive provides 91色情片 researchers a free, safe and secure, large-scale storage service to archive research data.
The store complies with the听91色情片 Research Code of Conduct听and the听91色情片 Procedure for Handling Research Material & Data听by providing a solution that allows researchers to keep full, accurate and legible records of research methods, data and materials in a durable, organised and accessible manner.
The 91色情片 Data Archive can also be used to store data that is hard to regenerate e.g. computational heavy data or based on a one off event.
-
The 91色情片 Data Archive is available to all 91色情片 researchers (staff and HDR candidates).
91色情片 appointed researchers, within the institutes, may access and store their data in the Data Archive. The university is working on a solution for non 91色情片 appointed researchers within institutes.
-
The 91色情片 Data Archive is听FREE听to all 91色情片 researchers (Staff and HDR candidates).
-
- It is a 91色情片 owned and managed facility that is free of charge for all 91色情片 researchers (staff and High Degree Research (HDR) candidates).
- It is safe and secure. All data will only be stored at a 91色情片 datacentre with an additional back-up of data stored in a secure site off campus, so your data will always remain safe and accessible.听
- It complies with 91色情片听听补苍诲听听for the storage of data.
- It provides a secure space to view and share data.
- There is no quota limit.
- HDR candidates can store data in听Private听辞谤听Shared听(with supervisor and others) folders, making it easy for associated research groups to access data in one secure location.
- Data are only available to members identified in the specified听听().
-
All 91色情片 researchers have access to听听to create and register a听听(). The听听is integrated with the 91色情片 Data Archive - you must have a听听to obtain a storage allocation in the 91色情片 Data Archive.
Researchers are also strongly encouraged to plan for their project data to be deposited in discipline-specific repositories where these are available.听
So as a minimum, you can include statements such as:
- 鈥�91色情片 has implemented a data storage solution for every stage in the life cycle of a research project.鈥�
- "The 91色情片 Data Archive will be used to store the data for this project for at least 7 years"
- 鈥淭he data management plan for the project will be established using 91色情片鈥檚 ResData portal. 鈥�
- 鈥淒ata will be archived using 91色情片鈥檚 Data Archive (or other archive mechanism as applicable).鈥�
- 鈥淒ata will made discoverable by registration on Research Data Australia (and/or discipline-specific registries where applicable).鈥�
An example of a full statement on using the Data Archive could be:
"Access to data files will be password protected, with access restricted to project personnel. The 91色情片 servers are located in a secure data-centre, whereby physical access requires a swipe card or specially keyed master code. Swipe access is restricted to IT staff who have a need to access these rooms, and are encoded for access by security personnel. The room is protected by double-door airlock system, with both sets of doors independently secured. Console access to servers is password protected and requires VPN software with 2 factor authentication. Passwords for remote access to servers are required to be highly complex, and are expire every 6 months. Offsite tape storage is managed by reputable tape management companies."
-
The ARC () requires grant applicants to include information on the management of data which will be produced as a result of the proposed research. The requirement includes elements such as storage, access and re-use arrangements.
Applicants could outline:
- How the project鈥檚 research materials and data will be stored and managed in accordance with the听听(as implemented in 91色情片听听补苍诲听). In most cases, this means that electronic research data will be held on secure networked servers which are backed-up on a daily basis.
- Whether internal (i.e. 91色情片 researchers) access to electronic data will be facilitated through the 91色情片 Data Archive interface.
- Whether large and significant data sets will be shared with researchers outside of 91色情片, including through infrastructure such as the RDSI facility (or in specific ANDS and NECTAR projects).
What arrangements will be in place to deal with any specific requirements of the research data (privacy, confidentiality, commercial sensitivity)
Aside from needing to fulfil the requirements of the听, it is likely that projects which enable significant data to be shared with other researchers will be well received by assessors, so careful consideration of the plan to store, access and re-use the project鈥檚 data is required.
Researchers unsure about 91色情片 requirements for the management and storage of Research Data should consult the听听补苍诲听.
-

Asset:
These filters relate to the attributes of an asset. Some examples are:
- Created/Modified by Me: The asset was one you created or updated.
- Point and Radius: Lets you search for assets containing location data within a specific area
Metadata:
These filters let you filter results based on the metadata associated with those assets. There is a large variety of possible metadata fields, check the right panel of the asset finder when selecting an asset to see all the metadata associated with that asset. For example there might be a Metadata type "91色情片_RDS:91色情片_Default" with element "ProjectName". You can browse to this element and drag it into the filter field, it will let you search for text inside this metadata element.
Compound:
These filters let you combine other filters using various logical operations. Dragging these into the filter box will create a special box that you can drag other filters into, how these are affected depends on the type of compound filter:
- And: The filters inside must all be true for the asset to appear in the search
- Not: The filter inside must be false for the asset to appear
- Or: Only one of the filters inside need to be true for the asset to appear

By default the听听browser will save downloaded content to your computers听Downloads听folder (e.g. C:\Downloads)
You may like to decide听where听you will save the content that you download from the Data Archive (rather than allowing the听听browser to decide for you). To configure your听听browser so that you may decide where to download folders and files:
1.Go to the Chrome browser settings.
2.In the new,听Settings, browser tab which opens, scroll down to听Show advanced settings...
3.Click on听Show advanced settings..., scroll down to the听Downloads听section and check the option 'Ask where to save each file before downloading' check box.
- Close the听Settings听browser tab and your changes will be saved.

Factors that can affect the speed of your uploads are:
- Size of the data - larger files will obviously be slower to upload
- Number of files - more files are significantly slower as the archive has to analyze each file
- Location of the data - files on a network drive or external drive will take longer to download
- Speed of your network connection
So to speed your uploads there are a few things you can do:
Compress your files before uploading
Putting your files into an archive such as a Zip or Tar.gz file will help by reducing both the number of files uploaded and the total size of the files. Uploading an archive will be faster but to retrieve any of the files you will need to download the whole archive and extract them after downloading.
Copy your files to your computer before uploading听
Uploading files from your local computer, or an external drive, is significantly faster than from a network drive, so if possible copy your files to your local computer before uploading, especially for data sets with large numbers of files.
Use a better network connection
On-campus connections come in a few speeds, the fastest being a cabled network connection to a Gigabit network port, then a cabled connection to a 100megabit port, followed by wireless connections. If possible always use a cabled connection, and for very large uploads try to use a computer with a gigabit network connection. Network connections can be upgraded to gigabit speed, but this may incur a cost for some areas, please contact your local IT support or the听听(9385 1333) for further information.

The听听works in most modern web browsers, but only the听听browser supports uploading of folders of data with drag and drop. If the听听reports听0听files when you drag files from your computer into the Data Archive, you may not be using听.
For further information on using the听听see the听.
-
Should your upload of data to the Data Archive be interrupted by network failure, or some other issue, the next attempt to upload the same file, group of files, or folder, to the same location on the Data Archive, will resume from the last successful upload to the Data Archive; i.e. if 5 files were sent for upload and 2 succeed before the interruption, the Data Archive will resume the upload from the 3rd file.
Note: the above information is correct for听SFTP, and when using the听Command Line Script. Should your upload fail when using the听Web application; upload will start from the first file.

Use ZIP format with file paths longer than 256 characters.
If you use the听Download as Archive听function and听TAR听format with file paths longer than 256 characters you may experience a problem where the download finishes early and is not complete. If you encounter this issue, please use the听ZIP听format option with the听Download as Archive听function.
Note:听听users are particularly vulnerable to this issue (long file names). See听听for more information.Use the Web application for less than 50 GB and 1000 files.
The Data Archive听听is suitable for researchers who wish to听search听the Data Archive and to either upload or download听less听than 50 gigabytes (GB) of data and/or听less听then 1000 files (during a single session). See the听Web application guide听for more information.
Researchers who frequently upload or download data, and/or generate datasets, may wish to schedule a regular upload or download of data rather than manually uploading and downloading data via the听.
- Researchers who upload or download听more听than 50 GB of data and/or听more听than 1000 files, at a time, please see the听SFTP client guide.
- Researchers who wish to schedule a regular upload or download of data, please see the听Command line script guide.
