glite-eds-get — Gets a file using gLite I/O

Synopsis

glite-eds-get [ -q ] [ -v ] [ -i ID ] REMOTE_FILE LOCAL_FILE

DESCRIPTION

glite-eds-get is a command-line tool for transferring a remote file from a gLite I/O server to the local filesystem. It is assumed that the file is encrypted on the storage. glite-eds-get will look up the key needed for decryption in the hydra catalog, retrieve it and decrypt the file. The local file will be decrypted.

The client needs to have 'get meta data' (see glite-eds-chmod) permission on the ID to perform this operation.

OPTIONS

-q

Quiet operation.

-v

Increases the verbosity level.

-i ID

The ID to use to look up the encryption key in hydra. This defaults to the remote file's GUID.

REMOTE_FILE

The name of the remote file.

LOCAL_FILE

The name of the file on the local filesystem.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

GLITE_SD_GLITEIO_TYPE
