270 Platform LSF Command Reference
lsrcp
remotely copies files using LSF
Synopsis
lsrcp [-a] source_file target_file
lsrcp [-h | -V]
Description
Remotely copies files using LSF.
lsrcp is an LSF-enabled remote copy program that transfers a single file between
hosts in an LSF cluster.
lsrcp uses RES on an LSF host to transfer files. If LSF is not
installed on a host or if RES is not running then
lsrcp uses rcp to copy the file.
To use
lsrcp, you must have read access to the file being copied.
Both the source and target file must be owned by the user who issues the command.
lsrcp uses rcp to copy a source file to a target file owned by another user. See
rcp(1) and LIMITATIONS below for details.
Options
-a Appends source_file to target_file.
source_file target_file Specify an existing file on a local or remote host that you want to copy, and a file to
which you want to copy the source file.
File format is as follows:
[[user_name@][host_name]:][path/]file_name
user_name
Login name to be used for accessing files on the remote host. If user_name is not
specified, the name of the user who issued the command is used.
host_name
Name of the remote host on which the file resides. If host_name is not specified, the
local host, the host from which the command was issued, is used.
path
Absolute path name or a path name relative to the login directory of the user. Shell
file name expansion is not supported on either the local or remote hosts. Only
single files can be copied from one host to another.
Use "\" to transfer files from a Windows host to another Windows host. For
example:
c:\share>lsrcp file1 hostA:c:\temp\file2
Use "/" to transfer files from a UNIX host to a UNIX host. For example:
lsrcp file1 hostD:/home/usr2/test/file2
