HI Derek, Hmmm .... it does just hang though (I went away and had acup of tea and when I came back it was still unfinished). Just checking, it should be the SURL not TURL used in the lcg-sd command and it is a 0 (zero) not O (letter) at the end? The three files that I have tried this on have been: srm://dcache.gridpp.rl.ac.uk:8443/pnfs/gridpp.rl.ac.uk/data/cms/cms/ProdLCG/CMKIN_4_4_0/sm05_wbb_lv_toprex/sm05_wbb_lv_toprex_215800001.ntpl srm://dcache.gridpp.rl.ac.uk:8443/pnfs/gridpp.rl.ac.uk/data/cms/cms/ProdLCG/CMKIN_4_4_0/sm05_wbb_lv_toprex/sm05_wbb_lv_toprex_215800002.ntpl srm://dcache.gridpp.rl.ac.uk:8443/pnfs/gridpp.rl.ac.uk/data/cms/cms/ProdLCG/CMKIN_4_4_0/sm05_wbb_lv_toprex/sm05_wbb_lv_toprex_215800005.ntpl With the first and the third I tried the lcg-sd command and it hanged. For the second one I didn't. However if I then try a lcg-gt on any of them I now "No such file or directory". So what do I do now? Can you check things at your end? To me it looks like all three of the files have gone, however this may not be the case if what you say about the lcg-sd is the case. I controlled-C'ed the two hung commands. Please advise... All the best and thank you for your help in this! david On Thu, 4 Aug 2005, Ross, D (Derek) wrote: > Hi, > > The last command tells the SRM that you're finished with the TURL, so it > can close down the request, otherwise dCache will keep the request > hanging around until it reaches the lifetime that dCache set for it. > > Derek > > > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Testbed Support for GridPP member institutes > > [mailto:[log in to unmask]]On Behalf Of Dr D J Colling > > Sent: 04 August 2005 15:54 > > To: [log in to unmask] > > Subject: Re: deleting files in RAL srm? > > > > > > Hi Derek, > > > > I am afraid that the last command just hangs.
