[ ✅ ] Fixes:

The halias(1) manpage used a wrong name for the halias configuration file (halias.conf instead of aliases.conf). This is now corrected.

[ ⭐ ] New functionality:

  • The (guc) sync level used by gtransfer for transfers can now be selected by users (with e.g. gt --sync-level 1 [...]). Syncing can also be disabled (with e.g. gt --no-sync [...]).

  • The host aliases can now be retrieved and installed from a file provided locally or from a remote repository, just like dpaths and dparams (with e.g halias -r and prior configuration of the (remote) repository URL and file name in the aliases.conf file).

  • Wrappers for uberftp (called gtools) were added that provide shorthand functionality to users for common operations on remote GridFTP servers like (g)cat, (g)ls, (g)mkdir, (g)mv and (g)rm. All wrappers support host aliases and remote directory browsing just like gt. See the gtools(1) manpage for further details.

[ ✅ ] Fixes:

Due to an erroneous comparison, data transfers with URLs that contained host aliases that weren't prefixed with usernames, failed. This because a wrong replacement in the GridFTP URLs was applied due to the erroneous comparison. This is now fixed both in gtransfer and the gtransfer bash completion.

[ ⭐ ] New functionality:

Gt now also supports <USER>@ as prefix to host aliases. This was already included in the Bash completion but not activated until now as the support in gt was missing.

[ ✅ ] Fixes:

Helper functions:

helperFunctions/getURLWithoutPath() did not anticipate user names in front of host addresses in GridFTP URLs. This is now corrected.

Misc.:

Until now gt overwrote log files from unsuccessful tries and retries of a transfer. This was a source of irritation during evaluation of transfers as the start and stop timestamps did not resemble the start and stop of the whole transfer. And it also meant a loss of possibly helpful info. This was now changed so that older logfiles of the same transfer are preserved and newer ones get an additional identifier for each retry attached to their names.

[ ⭐ ] New functionality:

The stall timeout setting for globus-url-copy is now configurable via the gtransfer configuration file or from a dparam. If not configured in a dparam, the setting from the gtransfer configuration file is used. The old hard-coded default of 30 seconds is not necessarily suitable for data transfers from sites which first need to stage in files from e.g. tape before a data transfer can begin (e.g. sites using HPSS).

gtransfer v0.5.1

[ ✅ ] Fixes:

Misc.:

Using a "/" or "/*" in a source URL to transfer all files in a given dir now no longer makes problems for stat if only one file existed in the given dir. This fixes issue #41.

Special chars in URLs need to be percent or URL encoded when provided to globus-url-copy on the command line. This means that currently URLs with special chars also have to be provided to gt percent or URL encoded. This is now also mentioned in the gt manpage.
Before using stat, the path and file name in the source URL are now decoded beforehand, which makes the call to stat also working for URLs with special chars. This fixes issue #42.

[ ⭐ ] New functionality:

Gt options can now be used multiple times on the command line, the last setting of an option wins. This allows for setting gt default options via shell aliases.

[ ✅ ] Fixes:

Bash completion:

Added missing gt options to bash completion.

Misc.:

Enhanced the workaround for the guc bug (no size string in created transfer lists if only a single file is to be transferred) to get the size for file:// source URLs with the stat tool locally.

[ ✅ ] Fixes:

Multipathing:

A wrong variable name was corrected which prevented correct functioning of multipathing when using a transfer list as input to gt.

Host aliases:

Until now when trying to dealias host aliases that cannot be accessed by the effective user, the halias tool didn't exit a while loop and hence looped until interrupted by the user. This is now corrected.

[ ⭐ ] New functionality:

Checksumming and encryption of the data channel now configurable from gtransfer UI

Users can now enable data channel checksumming or data channel encryption during a data transfer with the following gtransfer options:

  • --checksum-data-channel, -c
  • --encrypt-data-channel, -e

[ ✅ ] Fixes:

PID functionality

The rule for resolving a PID to an URL was adapted to backend changes in EUDAT. This fixes issue #34.

[ ⭐ ] New functionality:

  • Data transfer using multipathing

    Gtransfer can now distribute a data transfer over multiple paths. This way users can benefit from the combined bandwidth of multiple paths. For more details please have a look into the README.

[ ✅ ] Fixes:

  • Included a workaround for an old globus-url-copy (guc) bug: A transfer list created for a single file does not contain the size of the file. gt now determines the file size in this case with uberftp and updates the transfer list. The file size is needed for calculating the transfer rate and for the bin packing heuristics used by the multipathing functionality.
  • For native OS packages (like RPMs) all tools now use /usr/share/gtransfer as base path for bash libraries. This fixes issue #26.
  • Integrated a 1 second timeout to the ping command in helperFunctions/isValidUrl() to keep wait time low when transferring between hosts not answering echo requests.
