Hi Rishi,

Sorry, I didn't know you interpreted my recollection of the *exact parameter name* literally. YMMV doing that. The best bet will always be to check the cmd line usage (with no args like you did) for the most up-to-date usage. > In any case though, I tried a couple parameter arguments with filemgr-client, > but all yield an error saying a product specified with --refs could not be > located: > > 1) ./filemgr-client ... --transferFactory InPlaceDataTransferFactory --refs > file:///doesnotexist > > 2) ./filemgr-client ... --dataTransfer InPlaceDataTransferFactory --refs > file:///doesnotexist > > 3) ./filemgr-client ... --dataTransfer > org.apache.oodt.cas.filemgr.datatransfer.InPlaceDataTransfererFactory --refs > file:///doesnotexist > > 4) ./filemgr-client ... --transferFactory InPlaceDataTransfer --refs > file:///doesnotexist None of the above will would because they all omit the use of: --clientTransfer NOTE: this parameter tells the File Manager that the FM Client will be doing the actually data transferring, rather than the FM Server. So, basically what you do is you provide both the switch to turn on client transfer *and* the appropriate data transfer factory. Try: --clientTransfer --dataTransfer org.apache.oodt.cas.filemgr.datatransfer.InPlaceDataTransferFactory HTH!
