*****************************************
re Phase Out of BNL FTP Archive
as of March 1, 2002
and mirroring the PDB ftp archive
from ftp.ebi.ac.uk
*****************************************
The EBI will continue to mirror the PDB FTP archive
in the RCSB directory structure.
NO DIRECTORIES IN THE PDB FTP BNL ARCHIVE WILL BE KEPT AT THE EBI
AFTER THIS DATE, ONLY A LOCAL COPY OF THE UNCOMPRESSED FILES WILL BE
MAINTAINED
You can mirror the pdb from ftp.ebi.ac.uk using
ftp://sunsite.org.uk/packages/mirror
with the "packages/ftp.ebi.ac.uk" file as below:
package=defaults
hostname=YOUR_MACHINE_NAME
dir_mode=0755
file_mode=0755
user=YOUR_USER_NAME
group=YOUR_GROUP_NAME
update_log=.mirror
compress_patt=
compress_prog=
do_deletes=true
max_delete_files=5%
max_delete_dirs=5%
make_bad_symlinks=true
chmod=true
force_times=yes
algorithm=0
mode_copy=true
package=pdb
site=ftp.ebi.ac.uk
remote_user=ftp
remote_password=YOUR_EMAIL_ADDRESS
recursive=true
update_log=.mirror
remote_dir=/pub/databases/rcsb/pdb
local_dir=YOUR_LOCAL_DIRECTORY
#----------------------------------------------------------------
Note: The weekly updates are made available by the RCSB each
Weds at 8-00am UK time - the EBI copy will be complete by 9-00am UK
time onto ftp1.ebi.ac.uk and by 10-00am UK time on ftp.ebi.ac.uk.
Note: The RCSB ftp archive does not contain uncompressed entries.
The EBI will keep in the ftp area (mainly for internal use) an
uncompressed copy in
ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/msd/pdb_uncompressed/
You can also mirror this directory if you choose.
(Until 1-March-2002 it is simply a symbolic link)
Note: If you were using the BNL archive directory
ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/pdb/pub/pdb/latest_update
to do weekly updates on derived in-house data/services/copying
You will now have to use the information contained in directory
ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/rcsb/pdb/data/status
This contains a sub-directory for each weekly update.
For example the latest is
ftp://ftp.ebi.ac.uk/pub/databases/rcsb/pdb/data/status/20020128
containing the set of files:
added.nmr
added.pdb
added.sf
curated.nmr
curated.pdb
curated.sf
modified.nmr
modified.pdb
modified.sf
obsolete.nmr
obsolete.pdb
obsolete.sf
Each file contains the file names of entries in each category.
The entry names are list as for example
status/20020128> less added.pdb
-rw-r--r-- 1 rcsb rcsb 578583 Jan 30 2002 pdb1ez9.ent
-rw-r--r-- 1 rcsb rcsb 209223 Jan 25 00:00 pdb1hzm.ent
-rw-r--r-- 1 rcsb rcsb 433917 Jan 25 00:00 pdb1jke.ent
-rw-r--r-- 1 rcsb rcsb 934659 Jan 30 2002 pdb1jkj.ent
-rw-r--r-- 1 rcsb rcsb 895617 Jan 30 2002 pdb1jll.ent
....
PLEASE NOTE: The current use of the ftp.ebi.ac.uk PDB archives
are for
the BNL directory structure Jan 2002: 313494 requests
the RCSB directory structure Jan 2002: 11386 requests
A large number of users will need to change their scripts!!!
