Chapter 5 of the IREn InGrid User Guide
Using IREn InGrid in Actinia mode
Using IREn InGrid in Actinia mode is no more complex than copying a file within the file system itself. In fact, this mode is designed for simplicity and it does not require any complex management or maintenance. The only required configuration option is the full path to the folder to monitor. Another caveat is that designing your system around Actinia requires the client software to properly maintain the filesystem permissions and locks. Once the file is copied to the Active Folder, it must be released from any locks so that Actinia could process it. This also includes scenarios involving network-accessible folders (network drives, network shares) mounted to the local file system, and the network protocol should be able to properly release the write locks and support access permissions.
