- the location(s) to delete
The
arcrm command deletes files on grid storage elements and indexing
services. In the case of an indexing service url all physical instances of the
file corresponding to the given locations are deleted and unregistered. If an
indexing service url is given without locations, all physical instances and
all meta-information about file are deleted. For more information on ARC URL
syntax please read "Protocols, Uniform Resource Locators (URL) and
Extensions Supported in ARC" [NORDUGRID-TECH-7]
If
url starts from '@', the remaining argument is assumed to be a path to
a local file containing a list of URLs, one per line. In this case
arcrm performs like it were called with all those URLs as arguments.
Depending on the installed libraries (check with
-P ), the following
protocols may be used: file (file:// prefix may be omitted), http, https,
httpg, ftp, gsiftp, srm, root.
- ~/.arc/client.conf
- Some options can be given default values by specifying them
in the ARC client configuration file. By using the --conffile
option a different configuration file can be used than the default.
- X509_USER_PROXY
- The location of the user's Grid proxy file. Shouldn't be
set unless the proxy is in a non-standard location.
- ARC_LOCATION
- The location where ARC is installed can be specified by
this variable. If not specified the install location will be determined
from the path to the command being executed, and if this fails a WARNING
will be given stating the location which will be used.
- ARC_PLUGIN_PATH
- The location of ARC plugins can be specified by this
variable. Multiple locations can be specified by separating them by : (;
in Windows). The default location is $ARC_LOCATION/lib/arc (\ in
Windows).
