#Shoal Client v0.4.X README
##Basic Usage
-
After installing and before deploying Shoal Client, confirm the output will be what you expect. It should look like the following formatted text.
shoal-client --dump
will print the contents ofdefault.local
to stdout.
VMFS_REPOSITORIES=atlas.cern.ch,atlas-condb.cern.ch,grid.cern.ch CVMFS_QUOTA_LIMIT=3500 CVMFS_HTTP_PROXY="[[DYNAMIC SQUID HOSTNAMES APPENDED HERE]];http://chrysaor.westgrid.ca:3128;http://cernvm-webfs.atlas-canada.ca:3128;DIRECT"
- Because of how CVMFS operates at the current time of this writing, it is necessary to update the default.local file before accessing CVMFS files. It is recommended to run Shoal Client on boot.
