NAME

lcg_aa - add an alias in the RMC or the LFC for a given GUID

 

SYNOPSIS

import lcg_util

(int returncode, string errmsg ) lcg_aax (string lfn, string guid, string vo, string conf_file, int insecure)

(int returncode, string errmsg ) lcg_aax (string lfn, string guid, string vo, string conf_file, int insecure)

(int returncode, string errmsg ) lcg_aa2 (string lfn, string guid, int nobdii, string vo)

 

DESCRIPTION

lcg_aa adds an alias in the RMC or the LFC for a given GUID.
lfn
specifies the new alias.
guid
specifies the Grid Unique IDentifier.
nobdii
If set to a non-zero value, it means that you don't want to make BDII calls to get LFC endpoint. So, you have to define the environment variable 'LFC_HOST'.
vo
specifies the Virtual Organization the user belongs to. If it is not specified, the environment variable LCG_GFAL_VO will be used.
conf_file
This argument is currently ignored.
insecure
This argument is currently ignored. The access to the Replica Catalog or the LFC is done according to the endpoints published in MDS.

 

NOTE

The environment variable LCG_GFAL_INFOSYS must point to the BDII, unless nobdii is set to a non-zero value. To use the RLS as catalog instead of the LFC, the environment variable LCG_CATALOG_TYPE must explicitely be set to "edg". By default, it is set to "lfc".

 

RETURN VALUE

This routine returns 0 if the operation was successful or -1 if the operation failed. In the latter case, errno is set appropriately.

 

ERRORS

EEXIST
The alias exists already.
EFAULT
lfn , guid or vo is an invalid pointer.
ECOMM
Communication error.
ENAMETOOLONG
vo is too long.
