List supported filesystems and options

Local filesystem

This is the default source, and the easiest to configure, since it has no configuration options.

$ intorods '/home/user/mydata' '/demoZone/home/user/'

SMB filesystem

-s|--source_fs

To use the SMB/CIFS filesystem use the smb source_fs option.

-o|--source_option

The smb source_fs needs the source_options for the SMB share:

• server=<server>,

• share=<sharename>,

• nbserver=<netbios servername>,

• username=<user>,

• domain=<domain>,

• password=<password>

and a source_path, the path in the SMB share.

example:

$ intorods -s smb -o server='server1.localdomain',share='data',username='smbuser',password='secret' '/data/mydata' '/demoZone/home/user/'

FTP filesystem

-s|--source_fs

To use the SFTP filesystem use the ftp source_fs option.

-o|--source_option

The ftp source_fs needs the source_options for the FTP share:

Mandatory option:

• hostname=<hostname>

Optional options:

• username=<user>,

• password=<password>

If you do not provide credentials, anonymous login will be attempted

example:

$ intorods -s ftp -o hostname='server2.localdomain' '/home/ftpusers/data' '/demoZone/home/user/'

SFTP filesystem

-s|--source_fs

To use the SFTP filesystem use the sftp source_fs option.

-o|--source_option

The sftp source_fs needs the source_options for the SFTP share:

• hostname=<hostname>,

• username=<user>,

• password=<password>

and a source_path, the path in the SFTP share.

example:

$ intorods -s sftp -o hostname='server2.localdomain',user='sftpuser',password='secret' '/home/sftpusers/data' '/demoZone/home/user/'

SCP filesystem

-s|--source_fs

To use the SCP filesystem use the scp source_fs option.

-o|--source_option

The scp source_fs needs the source_options for the SCP share:

• hostname=<hostname>,

• username=<username>

SCP uses the secure ssh key to get acces to the share.

and a source_path, the path in the SCP share.

example:

$ intorods -s scp -o hostname='server3.localdomain',user='sftpuser' '/home/user/data' '/demoZone/home/user/'

iRODS instance

`-s|-source_fs

To use an iRODS instance use the irods source_fs option.

-o|--source_option

The irods source_fs needs the source_options for the iRODS instance:

• resource=<dest resource>,

• use_ssl=<true|false>,

• host=<host>,

• user=<user>,

• password=<passwd>,

• zone=<zone>,

• timeout=<timeout>

and a source_path, the path in the iRODS instance.

example:

$ intorods -s irods -o resource='storageResc',use_ssl='true',host='server4.localhost',user='irodsuser',password='secret',zone='otherZone',timeout='180' '/otherZone/projects/myProject' '/demoZone/home/user/'
