Hi Tanguy, It's under pretty heavy development and there are some major changes planned. Part of this will be dropping rabbitMQ (or at least the requirement for rabbitMQ - we will probably retain AMQP in the form of a slower python-based MQ that can be supplanted with rabbitMQ). That said, rabbitMQ should only be required for the barcode scanning functionality. For datast transfer, see the Transfer Manager and Deferred Job Runner, enabled with 'enable_beta_job_managers = True' in the config. > I would really love being able to use it... it would be even better with > a "Link instead of copying"... but as it seems to use SCP I guess it's > not possible! Yes, you won't be able to link instead of copying using this method. It could be extended to do so but for now, it assumes it is copying data from a remote service. > Just to give you an overview of what we would like to do... > We already have a project management system that also handles the raw > data.

It's still in beta but it should definitely do what you're trying to do. --nate > > Any idea/advice welcome! > > Thanks again for all your good work! > > Best regards, > Tanguy > > -- > Tanguy LE CARROUR > > Functional Genomics Center Zurich > ETH Zurich / University of Zurich > Winterthurerstrasse 190 > 8057 Zurich > Switzerland > > ___________________________________________________________ Please keep all replies on the list by using "reply all" in your mail client.
