The EDG Replica Manager

The EDG Replica Manager (Reptor) is a replica manager that is based on web service technology such as the Simple Object Access Protocol (SOAP) as well as the Java version of the Globus toolkit. In addition, Reptor uses the Replica Location Service (RLS), the Replica Metadata Catalog (RMC) and the Replica Optimization Service (ROS or Optor) to manage replication across a distributed Grid environment. In this document we concentrate on the installation and refer to the EDG Replica Manager User Guide for usage [A5]. For design details refer to [A1] and [R1].
