Hi everyone,

I'm experimenting with OODT filemanager, and wanted to ingest a product file's 
met into the filemgr catalog.

I don't have the product file on hand, but I do have the metadata.

The filemgr user's guide (ie. 
http://oodt.apache.org/components/maven/filemgr/user/basic.html) documents how 
to ingest a product file assuming you actually have the product on hand. 
However, if I only want to ingest the metadata, how would I go about doing this?

The 'filemgr-client' script seems to not allow ignoring the product reference. 
In other words, I cannot simply eliminate the "--refs" flag.


> ./filemgr-client --url http://localhost:9000 --operation \
   --ingestProduct --productName blah.txt --productStructure Flat \
   --productTypeName GenericFile \
   --metadataFile file:///usr/local/cas-filemgr-v1.8.0/bin/blah.txt.met \
   --refs file:///usr/local/cas-filemgr-v1.8.0/bin/blah.txt


Any tips on how to ingest metadata only?

Thanks!
Rishi
