DESCRIPTION

       dpm-replicate replicates a file given the SURL or the PFN.

       file_type
              indicates the type of file desired for the new replica. It can be V (for Volatile),
              D (for Durable) or P (for Permanent).

       file_lifetime
              specifies  the  requested  file lifetime of the new replica relative to the current
              time.  It can be "Inf" (for infinite) or expressed in years  (suffix  'y'),  months
              (suffix  'm'),  days  (suffix  'd'), hours (suffix 'h') or seconds (no suffix).  If
              specified the file_type and file_lifetime must be compatible.

       s_token
              specifies that the new replica should be allocated within a space identified by the
              given token.
