DESCRIPTION: This talk gives researchers and IT staff a roadmap for managin
 g research data across its full lifecycle — from collection and active a
 nalysis to long‑term archiving. It covers core questions about ownership
 \, sharing\, and access\, explains the difference between backup and archi
 ve workflows\, and clarifies institutional roles and responsibilities. Pra
 ctical guidance includes where to store data (local institute storage like
  Ceph/ZFS pools vs. storage at MPCDF)\, how to prepare datasets for transf
 er and archiving (pack large numbers of small files into compressed TAR/ZI
 P containers)\, and strategies for ingesting data from field drives and hi
 gh‑performance compute requests. The presentation also addresses collabo
 ration with external services such as MPCDF and GWDG\, archive size and pa
 ckaging constraints\, and the use of IBM TSM for archival and backup opera
 tions. Operational best practices cover directory layout\, metadata and do
 cumentation standards (FAIR principles)\, retention policies (minimum rete
 ntion periods)\, and user education to avoid storing private or non‑rese
 arch content on shared systems. The session closes with a checklist and te
 mplates for a Data Management Plan\, concrete next steps for implementing 
 rules and controls\, and pointers to institutional contacts and resources.
