💅 gfal-legacy-unregister — the manual page, but make it cute

okay bestie, so this is gfal-legacy-unregister(1) from the General Commands Manual section, and we're gonna walk through it together like it's a group chat. no cap, it's short, you'll eat this up. 🍓

✨ NAME ✨

gfal-legacy-unregister — register a replica

(no fr, that's literally what the page says. it says "register a replica." the DESCRIPTION section says it removes one. i'm not gonna gaslight you, i'm just reporting what's on the page 💀 moving on.)

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

gfal-legacy-unregister [ -h ] [ -V ] [ -v ] [ -D DEFINITION ] [ -C
CLIENT-INFO ] [ -t TIMEOUT ]  lfc surl

like, that's the whole vibe. flags optional, lfc and surl mandatory. slay.

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

gfal-legacy-unregister Removes a replica from a catalog

that's it. that's the whole description. short queen energy. 👑

🎀 OPTIONS 🎀

here's where it gets juicy, bestie. every single one, i promise:

  • -h, --help — shows help about the command. your "wait what does this do again" button. 🫶
  • -V, --version — outputs version information and then dips. exits immediately.
  • -v, --verbose — verbose mode. and get this — you can repeat it up to 3 times for the most verbose mode. so -v -v -v is your max-chaos setting. more v's, more lore. 🔥
  • -D, --definition — define properties for gfal2. you bring the config, it brings the behavior.
  • -C, --client-info — provide custom client-side information. your own little signature on the request. 💅
  • -t, --timeout — global timeout for the execution of the command. the command gets interrupted if time expires before it finishes. so don't set it to 1 second and then act surprised, okay? 😭
  • lfc — the LFC entry. either lfc:// or guid: style. this is the catalog-side thing.
  • surl — Site URL. the actual endpoint-side thing. they're a duo, you need both. 🧚

💜 EXAMPLES 💜

the page gives you exactly one, and it's iconic:

gfal-legacy-unregister guid:12345-678-abcdef srm://endpoint.cern.ch/path/group

see? guid: first, srm:// second. main character and her supporting cast. ⭐

🌈 FILES 🌈

  • /etc/gfal2.d/* — literally all configuration files in this directory affect the behavior of the underlying gfal2. every single one. so if something's acting weird, check here first, bestie, i'm serious. 🙈

👑 AUTHORS 👑

these are the legends who made it happen:

  • Duarte Meneses <duarte.meneses@cern.ch>
  • Adrien Devresse <adrien.devresse@cern.ch>
  • Alejandro Alvarez Ayllon <alejandro.alvarez.ayllon@cern.ch>
