3.2.7 - Set Request File information
=================================


.. _SF:

Action Option -**SF** (-**SetFile**) :
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

creates or modifies data file information in GDEXDB for
given dataset/group(s)/file(s) of a specified request index. One or more
remote files can be processed per call.

Although a specialist can modify a data file record, this is rarely
needed. Data file records are normally generated either by the web
interface that accepts data request submissions or by the subsetting
programs.
