[Halla_parity] work disk (new and cleanup)

Dear Colleagues

The /work/halla/parity* disk areas will be cleaned
up on Wednesday Apr 7.  I will try to focus on older
and larger files.  This is necessary because disk
space is finite.

In addition, we should be getting the requested
amount of new disk by then (Mark's minimal request
but not the PVDIS request).  And since I know some
non-Parity folks are reading this: yes, I will also
have enough disk to satisfy all outstanding requests
in Hall A.

Important things to REMEMBER:
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

1. Work disks is a SCRATCH disk which is NOT BACKED UP.
Keep important files in /u/home or MSS -- or at your
private disk or at a User institution.  Plan for the
possibility that someone (not necessarily me) may
delete your files.

2. To all Hall A:  Requests for more work disk should
come with enough time to make procurements.  I try to
estimate the needs, but I get little advance info from
Users. We normally cannot give new disk "instantaneously".

thanks
Bob Michaels
