PEGASUS-TC-CLIENT(1)   PEGASUS-TC-CLIENT(1)

NAME

pegasus-tc-client - A full featured generic client to handle adds, deletes and queries to the Transformation Catalog (TC).

SYNOPSIS

pegasus-tc-client [-Dproperty=value...] [-h] [-v] [-V]
                   OPERATION TRIGGERS [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION

The pegasus-tc-client command is a generic client that performs the three basic operation of adding, deleting and querying of any Transformation Catalog implemented to the TC API. The client implements all the operations supported by the TC API. It is up to the TC implementation whether they support all operations or modes.
 
The following 3 operations are supported by the pegasus-tc-client. One of these operations have to be specified to run the client.
ADD
This operation allows the client to add or update entries in the Transformation Catalog. Entries can be added one by one on the command line or in bulk by using the BULK Trigger and providing a file with the necessary entries. Also Profiles can be added to either the logical transformation or the physical transformation.
DELETE
This operation allows the client to delete entries from the Transformation Catalog. Entries can be deleted based on logical transformation, by resource, by transformation type as well as the transformation system information. Also Profiles associated with the logical or physical transformation can be deleted.
QUERY
This operation allows the client to query for entries from the Transformation Catalog. Queries can be made for printing all the contents of the Catalog or for specific entries, for all the logical transformations or resources etc.
 
See the TRIGGERS and VALID COMBINATIONS section for more details.

OPERATIONS

To select one of the 3 operations.
-a, --add
Perform addition operations on the TC.
-d, --delete
Perform delete operations on the TC.
-q, --query
Perform query operations on the TC.

TRIGGERS

Triggers modify the behavior of an OPERATION. For example, if you want to perform a bulk operation you would use a BULK Trigger or if you want to perform an operation on a Logical Transformation then you would use the LFN Trigger.
 
The following 7 Triggers are available. See the VALID COMBINATIONS section for the correct grouping and usage.
-B
Triggers a bulk operation.
-L
Triggers an operation on a logical transformation.
-P
Triggers an operation on a physical transformation
-R
Triggers an operation on a resource.
-E
Triggers an operation on a Profile.
-T
Triggers an operation on a Type.
-S
Triggers an operation on a System information.

OPTIONS

The following options are applicable for all the operations.
-Dproperty=value
The -D options allows an experienced user to override certain properties which influence the program execution, among them the default location of the user’s properties file and the PEGASUS home location. One may set several CLI properties by giving this option multiple times. The -D option(s) must be the first option on the command line. A CLI property take precedence over the properties file property of the same key.
-l, --lfn logical
The logical transformation to be added. The format is: NAMESPACE::NAME:VERSION. The name is always required, namespace and version are optional.
-p, --pfn physical
The physical transformation to be added. For INSTALLED executables its a local file path, for all others its a url.
-t, --type type
The type of physical transformation. Valid values are: INSTALLED, STATIC_BINARY, DYNAMIC_BINARY, SCRIPT, SOURCE, PACMAN_PACKAGE.
-r, --resource resource
The resourceID where the transformation is located.
-e, --profile profiles
The profiles for the transformation. Multiple profiles of same namespace can be added simultaneously by separating them with a comma ",". Each profile section is written as NAMESPACE::KEY=VALUE,KEY2=VALUE2 e.g. ENV::JAVA_HOME=/usr/bin/java2,PEGASUS_HOME=/usr/local/pegasus. To add multiple namespaces you need to repeat the -e option for each namespace. e.g. -e ENV::JAVA_HOME=/usr/bin/java -e GLOBUS::JobType=MPI,COUNT=10
-s, --system systeminfo
The architecture, os, osversion and glibc if any for the executable. Each system info is written in the form ARCH::OS:OSVER:GLIBC
-v, --verbose
Displays the output in verbose mode (Lots of Debugging info).
-V, --version
Displays the Pegasus version.
-h, --help
Generates help

OTHER OPTIONS

-o, --oldformat
Generates the output in the old single line format
-c, --conf
path to property file

VALID COMBINATIONS

The following are valid combinations of OPERATIONS, TRIGGERS, OPTIONS for the pegasus-tc-client.

ADD

Add TC Entry
-a -l lfn -p pfn -t type -r resource -s system [-e profiles...]
 
Adds a single entry into the transformation catalog.
Add PFN Profile

Adds profiles to a specified physical transformation on a given resource and of a given type.
Add LFN Profile
-a -L -E -l lfn -e profiles ...
 
Adds profiles to a specified logical transformation.
Add Bulk Entries
-a -B -f file
 
Adds entries in bulk mode by supplying a file containing the entries. The format of the file contains 6 columns. E.g.
 
#RESOURCE   LFN         PFN      TYPE      SYSINFO      PROFILES
#
isi NS::NAME:VER  /bin/date  INSTALLED  ARCH::OS:OSVERS:GLIBC  NS::KEY=VALUE,KEY=VALUE;NS2::KEY=VALUE,KEY=VALUE

DELETE

Delete all TC
-d -BPRELST
 
Deletes the entire contents of the TC.
 
WARNING : USE WITH CAUTION.

Delete by PFN
-d -P -l lfn -p pfn [-r resource] [-t type]
 
Deletes entries from the TC for a given logical and physical transformation and additionally on a particular resource and or of a particular type.
Delete by Type
-d -T -t type [-r resource]

-d -S -s sysinfo
 
Deletes the entries from the TC for a particular system information type.
Delete Pfn Profile

PROPERTIES

These are the properties you will need to set to use either the File or Database TC.
 
For more details please check the $PEGASUS_HOME/etc/sample.properties file.
pegasus.catalog.transformation
Identifies what impelemntation of TC will be used. If relative name is used then the path org.griphyn.cPlanner.tc is prefixed to the name and used as the class name to load. The default value if Text. Other supported mode is File
pegasus.catalog.transformation.file
The file path where the text based TC is located. By default the path $PEGASUS_HOME/var/tc.data is used.

FILES

$PEGASUS_HOME/var/tc.data
is the suggested location for the file corresponding to the Transformation Catalog
$PEGASUS_HOME/etc/properties
is the location to specify properties to change what Transformation Catalog Implementation to use and the implementation related PROPERTIES.
pegasus.jar
contains all compiled Java bytecode to run the Pegasus planner.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

PEGASUS_HOME
Path to the PEGASUS installation directory.
JAVA_HOME
Path to the JAVA 1.4.x installation directory.
CLASSPATH
The classpath should be set to contain all necessary PEGASUS files for the execution environment. To automatically add the CLASSPATH to you environment, in the $PEGASUS_HOME directory run the script source setup-user-env.csh or source setup-user-env.sh.
