RCOPY

NAME

rcopy - simple file copy over RDMA.

SYNOPSIS

rcopy source server[:destination] [-p port]
rcopy [-p port]

DESCRIPTION

Uses sockets over RDMA interface to copy a source file to the specified destination.

OPTIONS

source

The name and path of the source file to copy.

server

The name or address of the destination server.

:destination

An optional destination filename and path. If not given, the destination filename will match that of the source.

-p server_port

The server’s port number.

NOTES

Basic usage is to start rcopy on a server system, then run rcopy sourcefile servername. The server application will continue to run after copying the file, but is currently single-threaded.

Because this test maps RDMA resources to userspace, users must ensure that they have available system resources and permissions. See the libibverbs README file for additional details.
