VUB users can join a Virtual Organization (VO), giving access to extra storage that is shared between the members of the VO. See the VUB-HPC docs on Virtual Organization for more info.
For users from other universities, the quota on $VSC_HOME and $VSC_DATA
are determined by the local policy of your home institution as these file
systems are mounted from there. The path names are similar with trivial
modifications based on your home institution and VSC account.
