Cleaning up your directories¶

In order to save disk space, relion has an option to clean up job directories. There are two modes of cleaning: ‘gentle’ cleaning will only delete intermediate files from the job directory being cleaned; ‘harsh’ cleaning also deletes files that may be necessary to launch a new job that needs input from the job being cleaned. For example, harsh cleaning will remove averaged micrographs from a MotionCorr job, or extracted particles stacks from a Particle extraction job, while gentle cleaning will remove all files from itermediate iterations of 2D classification, 3D classification or 3D auto-refine jobs. You can clean individual jobs from the Job actions button; or you can clean all jobs from the ‘Jobs’ pull-down menu at the top of the GUI. We used the ‘Gently clean all jobs’ option from that menu before making a tarball of the project directory that we distributed as our precalculated results. You might want to gently clean your project directory before you put your data in long-term storage.
