NAME

       dpm_copy - copy a set of existing files

SYNOPSIS

       #include <sys/types.h>
       #include "dpm_api.h"

       int  dpm_copy  (int  nbreqfiles, struct dpm_copyfilereq *reqfiles, char
       *u_token, int flags, time_t retrytime, char *r_token,  int  *nbreplies,
       struct dpm_copyfilestatus **filestatuses)

DESCRIPTION

       dpm_copy copies a set of existing files.

       The input arguments are:

       nbreqfiles
              specifies the number of files belonging to the request.

       reqfiles
              specifies   the   array   of   file   requests  (dpm_copyfilereq
              structures).

       struct dpm_copyfilereq {
            char      *from_surl;
            char      *to_surl;
            time_t    lifetime;
            char      f_type;
            char      s_token[CA_MAXDPMTOKENLEN+1];
            char      ret_policy;
            char      ac_latency;
            int       flags;
       };

       u_token
              specifies the user  provided  description  associated  with  the
              request.

       flags  if set to non zero, it allows to overwrite an existing file.

       retrytime
              This field is currently ignored.

       The output arguments are:

       r_token
              Address  of a buffer to receive the system allocated token.  The
              buffer must be at least CA_MAXDPMTOKENLEN+1 characters long.

       nbreplies
              will be set to the number  of  replies  in  the  array  of  file
              statuses.

       filestatuses
              will  be  set  to  the address of an array of dpm_copyfilestatus
              structures allocated by  the  API.  The  client  application  is
              responsible for freeing the array when not needed anymore.

       struct dpm_copyfilestatus {
            char      *from_surl;
            char      *to_surl;
            u_signed64     filesize;
            int       status;
            char      *errstring;
            time_t    f_lifetime;
       };

RETURN VALUE

       This  routine  returns  0  if the operation was successful or -1 if the
       operation failed. In the latter case, serrno is set appropriately.

ERRORS

       EFAULT       reqfiles, r_token, nbreplies or  filestatuses  is  a  NULL
                    pointer.

       ENOMEM       Memory could not be allocated for marshalling the request.

       EINVAL       nbreqfiles is not strictly positive,  the  length  of  the
                    user  request  description is greater than 255 or all file
                    requests have errors.

       SENOSHOST    Host unknown.

       SEINTERNAL   Database error.

       SECOMERR     Communication error.
