DQ2Client quick usage
Introduction
This page aims to give a quick usage of DQ2Client commands for browsing, searching and retrieving the ATLAS datasets on the Grid.
Setup environment

Search datasets
You can search for ATLAS dataset by Atlas Metadata Interface (AMI)
List datasets
The following command lists the merged FDRII AOD datasets of the Muon stream.
% dq2-ls fdr08_run2*Muon*merge*AOD* ... fdr08_run2.0052280.physics_Muon.merge.AOD.o3_r508_t45 fdr08_run2.0052301.physics_Muon.merge.AOD.o3_r508_t45/ fdr08_run2.0052283.physics_Muon.merge.AOD.o3_r508_t45 fdr08_run2.0052293.physics_Muon.merge.AOD.o3_f8_m10 fdr08_run2.0052290.physics_Muon.merge.AOD.o3_f8_m10 fdr08_run2.0052293.physics_Muon.merge.AOD.o3_r508_t45_tid024345 fdr08_run2.0052283.physics_Muon.merge.AOD.o3_r508_t45/ fdr08_run2.0052300.physics_Muon.merge.AOD.o3_f26_m15 ...

It returns a list of physical files located at your local site defined by $DQ2_LOCAL_SITE_ID environment variable.
You can however list the physical files located at another site by using the -L option:
