This paper targets the challenges of research data management with a focus on High Performance Computing (HPC) and simulation data. Main challenges are discussed: The Big Data qualities of HPC research data, technical data management, organizational and administrative challenges. Emerging from these challenges, requirements for a feasible HPC research data management are derived and an alternative data life cycle is proposed. The requirement analysis includes recommendations which are based on a modified OAIS architecture: To meet the HPC requirements of a scalable system, metadata and data must not be stored together. Metadata keys are defined and organizational actions are recommended. Moreover, this paper contributes by introducing the role of a Scientific Data Manager, who is responsible for the institution's data management and taking stewardship of the data.
