DESCRIPTION

glite-transfer-submit is a command-line tool for submitting new transfer jobs.

OPTIONS

-h

Print a short help message on parameters and usage, and exit.

-q

Quiet operation.

-s SERVICE

Specifies the service endpoint to use. If SERVICE starts with http://, https:// or httpg://, then it is taken as a direct service endpoint URL. Otherwise SERVICE is taken as a service instance name and Service Discovery is invoked to look up the endpoint. If no entries are found, SERVICE is then interpreted as site or host name and Service Discovery is again invoked. In that case, if more than one entry is returned, the client interface version is taken as reference to choose between all the discovered instances.

If this option is not specified, Service Discovery will be invoked and the first available transfer service will be used. If the Service Discovery fails, the program will exit with an error.

Note

If this option is not specified, only services with a known good status will be returned by Service Discovery. However if you explicitely specify a service name or an endpoint, the tool will try to use it regardless of its registered status.

-v

Increases the verbosity level.

-V

Print the version number and exit.

--source SSITE
Specify source site to use. If used with the --dest option, service discovery if used to get the associated FileTransfer services of the ChannelAgent services which provide a channel from SSITE to DSITE.
--dest DSITE

Specify destination site to use.

-b

Blocking mode, wait until the transfer job completes.

-i TIME

Interval between two status polls in blocking mode.

-p PASSWORD

MyProxy password to send with the job

-g PARAMS

Pass the PARAMS parameters to gridftp.

-m SERVER

Pass SERVER as the MyProxy server.

-p PASSWORD

Specify MyProxy password as PASSWORD. This will force the use of MyProxy legacy mode on delegation-enabled FTS servers.

-I DELEGATION_ID

Specify the delegation ID as DELEGATION_ID.

-c STORAGE_CLASS

Specify the optional storage class as STORAGE_CLASS.

-e EXPIRATION_TIME

Request the delegated credential to be valid for EXPIRATION_TIM minutes.

-f FILE

Read the list of files to transfer from FILE (- means the standard input). FILE must contain exactly one source and one destination SURL per line, separated by white space. If either SURL contains white space, it must be protected using \ (backslash).

SOURCE-SURL

The source SURL.

DEST-SURL

The destination SURL.
