NAME

lcg_lg - get the GUID for a given LFN or SURL

 

SYNOPSIS

import lcg_util

(int returncode, string guid, string errmsg ) lcg_lgx (string lfn_or_surl, string vo, string conf_file, int insecure)

(int returncode, string guid, string errmsg ) lcg_lg2 (string lfn_or_surl, int nobdii, string vo)

 

DESCRIPTION

lcg_lg gets the GUID for a given LFN or SURL.
lfn_or_surl
specifies the Logical File Name or the Site URL. An SURL scheme can be sfn: for a classical SE or srm:.
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.
guid
specifies a buffer (minimum 37 bytes) to receive the actual guid.
errbuf
specifies a buffer of size errbufsz to receive detailed error messages. If this pointer is NULL, the message goes to stderr. The pointer should not be NULL if the application is a daemon or is multi-threaded.

 

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

ENOENT
The named file does not exist.
EFAULT
lfn_or_surl, vo or guid is an invalid pointer.
EINVAL
lfn_or_surl has an invalid syntax.
ECOMM
Communication error.
ENAMETOOLONG
vo is too long.
EPROTONOSUPPORT
Access method not supported.
