1         Introduction

SRM client tools are full implementations of SRM v2.2 as generic SRM v2.2 clients, developed by Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory. They have been tested for all current SRM v2.2 implementations such as BeStMan, CASTOR, dCache, DPM, SRM/iRODS-SRB and StoRM. They are continuously being tested for compatibility and interoperability.

It�s a java implementation that would run on any OS platforms, and currently supports gsiftp, http, https and ftp as its file transfer protocols.

It requires the minimal administrative efforts on the deployment and maintenance.

SRM v2.2 specification can be found on http://sdm.lbl.gov/srm-wg/doc/SRM.v2.2.html.
SRM client downloads and instructions can be found on http://datagrid.lbl.gov/bestman.

         srm-ls� <source_url> �[command line options]

         srm-ls �-f <input_file> [command line options]

5.2       Options

         Command line options take priority from the options from conf file.

         Options in the following table are in alphabetical order

-authid <string>

         Authorization� ID to be used in SRM for the request

-conf <path>

         Path to the configuration file.

-recursive

         Specifies recursive listing with -ls option

         Default=false

-renewproxy

         Enables automatic proxy renewal upon expiration

         Works only when -usercert and -userkey are provided

         Default=false

-report <path>

         Specifies path to full report output.

-s <source_url>

         Source URL for file or directory

-serviceurl <ws_endpoint>

         Default=600

-statuswaittime <int>

         Wait time delay between status check, in seconds

         Default=30

-storageinfo

         extra storage access information

         Default=false

         For BeStMan supporting MSS, a formatted input separated by comma is used with following keywords when necessary:
for:<source|target|sourcetarget>,login:<string>,passwd:<string>,
projectid:<string>,readpasswd:<string>,writepasswd<string>

-submitonly

         Enables request submission only.

         Default=false

         When provided, srm-ls exits after the request submission. Otherwise, it continues checking status until it is timed out or gets return status.

-usercert <path>

         Path to user grid certificate

-userkey <path>

         Path to user grid certificate key

-xmlreport <path>

         Specifies path to short output report in XML format.

 

5.3       Notes

         srm client makes no proxy delegation by default, and automatically handles proxy delegation based on the source urls. A user can override the automatic handling by providing an option �-delegation� (or �-delegation true�) to force the delegation, and �-delegation false� to force no delegation. �-debug� option would show how the delegation is done on the output.

 

5.4       Input file format

7         Troubleshooting

         When a large LS request is submitted or expected, the srm-ls may not fill all request or status information into the memory. It is mostlikely because the memory size of the java virtual machine.� In such case, you can increase the size of the virtual machine in srm-ls by -Xmx###M, where # is the amount of memory which you want to allocate in megabytes. E.g. java �Xmx512M

         For memory conscious jobs, �-lite� option is provided to use less memory to handle the user request. The option the passes -Xms32M to the virtual machine.
