NAME         top

       rcopy - simple file copy over RDMA.

SYNOPSIS         top

       rcopy source server[:destination] [-p port]
       rcopy [-p port]

DESCRIPTION         top

       Uses sockets over RDMA interface to copy a source file to the
       specified destination.

OPTIONS         top

       source The name and path of the source file to copy.

       server The name or address of the destination server.

       :destination
              An optional destination filename and path.  If not given,
              the destination filename will match that of the source.

       -p server_port
              The server's port number.

NOTES         top

              Basic usage is to start rcopy on a server system, then run
              rcopy sourcefile servername.  The server application will
              continue to run after copying the file, but is currently
              single-threaded.

       Because this test maps RDMA resources to userspace, users must
       ensure that they have available system resources and permissions.
       See the libibverbs README file for additional details.
