Description



glite-VOBOX, glite-UI, glite-WN
Minor release of GFAL 1.11.6-1
==============================

Fix of error handling regression bug
glite-VOBOX, glite-UI, glite-WN
Minor release of lcg_util 1.7.4-1
=================================

  • warning in case of mismatch between command line VO and proxy VO
  • asynchronous srmLs support (dCache)
  • new synchronous function gfal_bringonline() with retrying/polling mechanism
  • new lcg-get-checksum command (and corresponding API function)
  • SRMv2 is now used by default if available
  • support of checksum verification during file transfers

Known Issues
  • When copying a local file to an SE, checksum checking does not work. (SE -> local and SE -> SE works OK). Will be fixed for the next release.
  • The lcg-rf commmand no longer prints the guid on success. The "--verbose" option has to be used in order to obtain the value. See bug #50548
