Richard, Dwight,

I see where the problem is now.  The destination path must exist for the
retrieve to work.  The quotes don't seem to matter.


dsmc retrieve -fromnode=spider01.cc.vt.edu /home/user/lau/test.f  /tmp/test.f
ANS4005E Error processing '/tmp': file not found

mkdir /home/user
mkdir /home/user/lau

dsmc retrieve -fromnode=spider01.cc.vt.edu /home/user/lau/test.f /tmp/test.f
Retrieving              57 /home/user/lau/test.f --> /tmp/test.f [Done]


Richard,  what is the difference between using "dsmc retrieve -fromnode"
and "dsmc retrieve -virtualnode -pa".  Why do you prefer -virtualnode over
-fromnode?
