srmRm Sample Clauses
srmRm. When a file is removed, the space occupied by the file is not accounted against the space reservation and the space occupied by the file can be re-used. There must not be an expectation that the space occupied by that file is immediately released. For this reason, it has been noted that the behavior of the srmRm operation should be re-discussed later on to understand if it is an option to allow for the method to be asynchronous. In order to perform a srmRm operation, the client must have privileges to perform the operation in the SRM namespace, regardless of any restrictions on the spaces in which copies of the file reside.
srmRm. When a FILE is removed, the bytes occupied by the physical copies of that FILE are not accounted against the SPACE reservation where the corresponding COPYs/TURLs are and those bytes can be re-used. There must not be an expectation that the bytes occupied by those physical copies are immediately released. However, it has been stressed that no requests for released space should fail. A srmPrepareToPut/srmStatusOfPrepareToPut cycle should return successfully only when the space has been made available. However, it has been stressed that the behavior of the srmRm operation must not be re-discussed later and the method must stay synchronous. In order to perform a srmRm operation, the client must have privileges to perform the operation in the SRM namespace, regardless of any restrictions on the SPACEs in which COPYs/TURLs of the FILE reside.
