LCG Util


Today, I have started to get familiar with the LCG Utils package. I had a discussion with Rémi Mollon who is the actual package owner, and will stop maintaining the package in October.

First, I wanted to explore the users of the project, they are the ATLAS and LHCb CERN experiments.

Then, we went through the dependencies between LCG Utils and the rest of the gLite project. The most important is:

LCG Utils is main end user command line tool for data management provided by LCG. Implements high level file management tools, like copy files, etc.
.

It depends on GFAL.

TODO: identify the main users and stakeholders on the experiment side. Have a coffee with them :)
