NAME

       pegasus-tc-client - A full featured generic client to handle adds, deletes and queries to the
       Transformation Catalog (TC).

SYNOPSIS

       pegasus-tc-client [-Dproperty=value...] [-h] [-v] [-V]
                         OPERATION TRIGGERS [OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION

The pegasus-tc-client command is a generic client that performs the three basic operation of adding,
deleting and querying of any Transformation Catalog implemented to the TC API. The client implements all
the operations supported by the TC API. It is up to the TC implementation whether they support all
operations or modes.

The following 3 operations are supported by the pegasus-tc-client. One of these operations have to be
specified to run the client.

ADD
This operation allows the client to add or update entries in the Transformation Catalog. Entries can
be added one by one on the command line or in bulk by using the BULK Trigger and providing a file
with the necessary entries. Also Profiles can be added to either the logical transformation or the
physical transformation.

DELETE
This operation allows the client to delete entries from the Transformation Catalog. Entries can be
deleted based on logical transformation, by resource, by transformation type as well as the
transformation system information. Also Profiles associated with the logical or physical
transformation can be deleted.

QUERY
This operation allows the client to query for entries from the Transformation Catalog. Queries can be
made for printing all the contents of the Catalog or for specific entries, for all the logical
transformations or resources etc.

See the TRIGGERS and VALID COMBINATIONS section for more details.

OPERATIONS

       To select one of the 3 operations.

       -a, --add
           Perform addition operations on the TC.

       -d, --delete
           Perform delete operations on the TC.

       -q, --query
           Perform query operations on the TC.

TRIGGERS

       Triggers modify the behavior of an OPERATION. For example, if you want to perform a bulk operation you
       would use a BULK Trigger or if you want to perform an operation on a Logical Transformation then you
       would use the LFN Trigger.

       The following 7 Triggers are available. See the VALID COMBINATIONS section for the correct grouping and
       usage.

       -B
           Triggers a bulk operation.

       -L
           Triggers an operation on a logical transformation.

       -P
           Triggers an operation on a physical transformation

       -R
           Triggers an operation on a resource.

       -E
           Triggers an operation on a Profile.

       -T
           Triggers an operation on a Type.

       -S
           Triggers an operation on a System information.

OPTIONS

The following options are applicable for all the operations.

-Dproperty=value
The -D options allows an experienced user to override certain properties which influence the program
execution, among them the default location of the user’s properties file and the PEGASUS home
location. One may set several CLI properties by giving this option multiple times. The -D option(s)
must be the first option on the command line. A CLI property take precedence over the properties file
property of the same key.

-l, --lfn logical
The logical transformation to be added. The format is: NAMESPACE::NAME:VERSION. The name is always
required, namespace and version are optional.

-p, --pfn physical
The physical transformation to be added. For INSTALLED executables its a local file path, for all
others its a url.

-t, --type type
The type of physical transformation. Valid values are: INSTALLED, STATIC_BINARY, DYNAMIC_BINARY,
SCRIPT, SOURCE, PACMAN_PACKAGE.

-r, --resource resource
The resourceID where the transformation is located.

-e, --profile profiles
The profiles for the transformation. Multiple profiles of same namespace can be added simultaneously
by separating them with a comma ",". Each profile section is written as
NAMESPACE::KEY=VALUE,KEY2=VALUE2 e.g. ENV::JAVA_HOME=/usr/bin/java2,PEGASUS_HOME=/usr/local/pegasus.
To add multiple namespaces you need to repeat the -e option for each namespace. e.g. -e
ENV::JAVA_HOME=/usr/bin/java -e GLOBUS::JobType=MPI,COUNT=10

-s, --system systeminfo
The architecture, os, osversion and glibc if any for the executable. Each system info is written in
the form ARCH::OS:OSVER:GLIBC

-v, --verbose
Displays the output in verbose mode (Lots of Debugging info).

-V, --version
Displays the Pegasus version.

-h, --help
Generates help

OTHER OPTIONS

       -o, --oldformat
           Generates the output in the old single line format

       -c, --conf
           path to property file

VALID COMBINATIONS

The following are valid combinations of OPERATIONS, TRIGGERS, OPTIONS for the pegasus-tc-client.

ADD

-a -l lfn -p pfn -t type -r resource -s system [-e profiles...]

Adds a single entry into the transformation catalog.

Add PFN Profile
-a -P -E -p pfn -t type -r resource -e profiles ...

Add LFN Profile
-a -L -E -l lfn -e profiles ...

PROPERTIES

       These are the properties you will need to set to use either the File or Database TC.

       For more details please check the $PEGASUS_HOME/etc/sample.properties file.

       pegasus.catalog.transformation
           Identifies what impelemntation of TC will be used. If relative name is used then the path
           org.griphyn.cPlanner.tc is prefixed to the name and used as the class name to load. The default value
           if Text. Other supported mode is File

       pegasus.catalog.transformation.file
           The file path where the text based TC is located. By default the path $PEGASUS_HOME/var/tc.data is
           used.

FILES

       $PEGASUS_HOME/var/tc.data
           is the suggested location for the file corresponding to the Transformation Catalog

       $PEGASUS_HOME/etc/properties
           is the location to specify properties to change what Transformation Catalog Implementation to use and
           the implementation related PROPERTIES.

       pegasus.jar
           contains all compiled Java bytecode to run the Pegasus planner.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

       CLASSPATH
           The classpath should be set to contain all necessary PEGASUS files for the execution environment. To
           automatically add the CLASSPATH to you environment, in the $PEGASUS_HOME directory run the script
           source setup-user-env.csh or source setup-user-env.sh.
