Set up

Assuming you have a Grid certificate [1], you need to do the following (everytime you start a new shell) to be able to use DQ2 at Nikhef:

  • setup Grid:
    source /global/ices/lcg/current/etc/profile.d/grid_env.csh
  • setup DQ2:
    source setup.csh.NIKHEF

Oh, enneh... don't forget to do a grid-proxy-init.

Tools

  • dq2_ls <pattern>
    search for dataset with <pattern>
  • dq2_ls -g <dataset>
    lists files in <dataset>
  • dq2_get -v -r <dataset>
    get dataset
    with verbose output
    The option -r is needed to download files 'remotely' via the Grid. As far as I know (correct me if I'm wrong) it is not possible to copy directly from the Nikhef SE (like CASTOR at CERN).
