The dCache dccp client

dCache provides a series of clients dccp uses the native dCache transfer protocols of dcap and its secured version gsidcap.

Using dccp as a dcap client

unset DCACHE_IO_TUNNEL

$/opt/d-cache/dcap/bin/dccp    /etc/group dcap://leoben.desy.de:22125//pnfs/desy.de/data/dteam/test6
Command failed!
Server error message for [1]: "path //pnfs/desy.de/data/dteam/test6 not found" (errno 10001).
597 bytes in 0 seconds

Using dccp as a gsidcap client

export DCACHE_IO_TUNNEL=libgsiTunnel.so  

$/opt/d-cache/dcap/bin/dccp    /etc/group gsidcap://leoben.desy.de:22128//pnfs/desy.de/data/dteam/test5
Command failed!
Server error message for [1]: "path //pnfs/desy.de/data/dteam/test5 not found" (errno 10001).

Using debug flags with dccp

Debugging

The dcap libraries and dccp client use a bit mask variable.

export DCACHE_DEBUG=255

255 is the highest level of debugging, but may prove unstable, I would recommend lower levels with 1,2,4,8.
