EXTENDED DESCRIPTION

47       The  arcrm  command deletes files on grid storage elements and indexing
48       services.  In the case of an indexing  service  url  all  physical  in‐
49       stances  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.

FILES

66       ~/.arc/client.conf
67              Some options can be given default values by specifying  them  in
68              the  ARC  client configuration file. By using the --conffile op‐
69              tion a different configuration file can be  used  than  the  de‐
70              fault.

ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES

74       X509_USER_PROXY
75              The location of the user's Grid proxy file. Shouldn't be set un‐

80              The location where ARC is installed can  be  specified  by  this
81              variable.  If  not specified the install location will be deter‐
82              mined from the path to the command being executed, and  if  this
83              fails a WARNING will be given stating the location which will be
84              used.
85
86
87       ARC_PLUGIN_PATH
88              The location of ARC plugins can be specified by  this  variable.
89              Multiple  locations  can be specified by separating them by : (;
90              in Windows). The default location is $ARC_LOCATION/lib/arc (\ in
91              Windows).
