NAME
jura - Job Usage Reporter of ARC
DESCRIPTION
The jura application is a resource-side accounting (usage logging)
client.
SYNOPSIS
jura [-E exp_time] [-u url [-u url ...] ] ctrl_dir [ctrl_dir ...]
OPTIONS
-E expiration time (validity length) of job log files in days
-u logging destination URL
ARGUMENTS
ctrl_dir
The A-REX control directory for a mapped local UNIX user
EXTENDED DESCRIPTION
Normally, jura is invoked by A-REX periodically with the appropriate
command line arguments, but it can also be executed interactively.
Job log files, i.e. files produced by A-REX for each job and stored
under <ctrl_dir>/logs contain various usage data and configuration
options for accounting (see NORDUGRID-TECH-24 for details of their
content). These files are parsed by jura, converted into UR format, and
submitted in batches to reporting destinations. A destination is a
resource usage logging service; currently SGAS LUTS is supported. Job
log files older than the expiration time specified with the -E option
are deleted without parsing.
If the -u option is absent, URs are submitted to the destination URLs
specified in the job log files. If submitting succeeds, the
corresponding job log files are deleted. This is the default, automatic
mode of operation.
If destination URLs are specified with the -u option, URs are submitted
only to these destinations (one UR per job to each destination). In
this case, job log files are preserved even if submitting succeeds.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
X509_USER_CERT
The location of the certificate of the reporting entity, used
only if not specified in job log files. The default is the

The path to the certificates of trusted CAs, used only if not
specified in job log files. The default is the standard

ARC_LOCATION
The location where ARC is installed can be specified by this
