47 The arcrm command deletes files on grid storage elements and indexing
48 services. In the case of an indexing service url all physical
49 instances of the file corresponding to the given locations are deleted
50 and unregistered. If an indexing service url is given without loca‐
51 tions, all physical instances and all meta-information about file are
52 deleted. For more information on ARC URL syntax please read "Proto‐
53 cols, Uniform Resource Locators (URL) and Extensions Supported in ARC"
54 [NORDUGRID-TECH-7]
55
56 If url starts from '@', the remaining argument is assumed to be a path
57 to a local file containing a list of URLs, one per line. In this case
58 arcrm performs like it were called with all those URLs as arguments.
59
60 Depending on the installed libraries (check with -P ), the following
61 protocols may be used: file (file:// prefix may be omitted), http,
62 https, httpg, ftp, gsiftp, srm, root.
