Using the StorageElementProxy

Instead of directly accessing the GRID StorageElements one can use the StorageElement Proxy to access some files.

This should not be used to upload or download Gigabytes of files, because there is not a lot of bandwidth for this service, but it can be used to transfer a few files.

Add this to your $HOME/.dirac.cfg or $DIRAC/etc/dirac.cfg file.

LocalSite{
   StorageElements
  {
    ProxyProtocols=srm
  }
}

If there is already a LocalSite section in your dirac.cfg file just add the StorageElements part to this section.

This will instruct copy commands to use the proxy service for the srm protocol, which is used by most StorageElements.
