Group Manager
Group Manager allows users to create, join and manage groups to facilitate collaboration and data sharing. The Information Sidebar on the right hand side of the Group Manager main window should provide information on how to use the interface.
Typical use scenario
- Create a new group with a name and description
- Add members to the group
- Other users can request to join your group
- You can approve or deny those requests
- A share will be automatically created, /shares/<groupname> on CIRCE or \\cifs.rc.usf.edu\shares\<groupname> for mapping directly a network drive from a Windows-based workstation

Accessing Group Data
There are several ways available for accessing your group data share. When you create a group, qualified research groups get up to 1TB of replicated, backed-up storage.
Access via SFTP
- Point your SFTP client to
circe.rc.usf.edu
- Navigate to the path
/shares/<group_name>
where<group_name>
is the name of your group. Any files or directories created or copied to that location will be accessible by the group.
Access via the Command Line on CIRCE
While logged into CIRCE, simply change to the directory /shares/<group_name>
where <group_name>
is the name of your group. Any files or directories created or copied to that location will be accessible by the group.
Access via Windows Mapped Network Drive
For Windows 7 and previous,
- Go to
Start
and right-click onComputer
- Select “Map Network Drive”
- Select a drive letter you will remember
- Enter
\\cifs.rc.usf.edu\shares\<group_name>
where<group_name>
is the name of your group - You should now be able to access your group share via the drive letter you selected
