AW: [geclipse-dev] Remote-to-remote transfers with SRM

Hi Mateusz and others,

I agree with you, remote-to-remote is a nice2have but nothing more at the moment. It is much more important for the daily Grid user to have a reliable way of transferring data from local to remote and vice versa. And since the redirection via local already works this is at least a workaround for the problem.

So +1 from me...

Cheers, Mathias

Betreff: [geclipse-dev] Remote-to-remote transfers with SRM

Hi *,

recently we (that means college from OMII Europe project and me) were
trying to implement 3rd party transfers with SRM (AKA remote-to-remote
transfers).

This kind of transfer is used to copy/move files between two remote
machines without using client as a proxy. One of them is not needed to
be SRM. The other may be a gsiftp server.

But, since our SRMs are mostly DPM implementations I have bad news:
DPM server (even on latest 1.6.5 version) does not support 3rd party
transfers. Server returns SRM_NOT_SUPPORTED in most cases.

I've found this daily SRM tests which can be used to determine which
configuration is supported by which implementation:

http://datagrid.lbl.gov/v22/index.html

As you can see, dCache is more reliable in this subject (and others too).

Because of the above I propose to mark remote-to-remote srm transfers
with very low priority.

and +1 as implicit by this proposal.
