Some useful commands on HEP01:

In order to copy file "a.b" from directory"/eos/atlas/{}/a.b" get a VOMS proxy and then:

    lsetup xrootd  
    xrdcp root://eosatlas.cern.ch//eos/atlas/{}/a.b .  

    lsetup xrootd  
    xrdcp root://eosuser.cern.ch//eos/user/{}/a.b .  

'xrd eosatlas.cern.ch dirlist /eos/atlas/{path}' (VOMS proxy required)
'xrd eosuser.cern.ch dirlist /eos/user/{path}' (kerberos ticket and VOMS proxy required)

Sahal has written a script in /atlas/temp_data/eos_get.py which can be used to download samples via xrdcp
