Creating a Symbolic Link for the Sim Directory
This section describes how to create a symbolic link to a scratch directory for all the simulation files. These are quite large and will fill your disk quota if you do not move the simulation directory as described below.

1. First go to scratch and create a directory, use your login name for the directory name. These commands will get you to scratch and help you create a directory:
   cd /magellan/scratch => mkdir [your login name] (i.e. mkdir jsomeone)
2. Now go back to your project folder: cd home will get you back to your main directory go to the project folder (like you are about to run cadence)
3. Now delete your Sim folder, rm -R Sim will delete the whole directory (if you want to keep these files copy them to your scratch folder or some place else)
4. Now run this command to create your symbolic link ln -s /magellan/scratch/[you login name] Sim
5. If you type ls you should see Sim@ the @ indicates that it is a symbolic link. If you run cd Sim it should move you to /magellan/scratch/[your login name]
