- iRODS instance with SURF Data Archive coupled as storage resource (you can check with 'ilsresc' command)
| Info |
|---|
We use the offline facilities that the SURF Data Archive service offers. For reference, we keep here a link to the DMF commands, which display, among other information, the status that a file is in: Data Archive: DMF commands#CheckingFileStatus |
Data objects stored through iRODS on SURF Data Archive will in time also be put offline on tape according to the policy dictated by the SURF Data Archive service. When that has occurred and you try to get/download the file using icommands or any other iRODS client, the get request give an error, because iRODS rules will flag that the data is offline and iRODS will cut the connection as it can not be retrieved without staging the file back online.
