 On Linux and Unix environments, this is typically a POSIX shell (bash, zsh, ksh, sh). In this environment shell command line parsing applies before `ascli` (Ruby) is executed, e.g. [bash shell operation](https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/manual/bash.html#Shell-Operation). Ruby receives a list parameters and gives it to `ascli`. So special character handling (quotes, spaces, env vars, ...) is done in the shell.

-## <a name="scheduling"></a>Scheduling an exclusive execution
+## <a name="scheduling"></a>Lock for exclusive execution
+
+In some conditions, it may be desirable to ensure that `ascli` is not executed several times in parallel.
+
+For instance when `ascli` is executed automatically on a schedule basis, one generally desire that a new execution is not started if a previous execution is still running because an on-going operation may last longer than the scheduling period:
+
+* Executing instances may pile-up and kill the system
+* The same file may be transfered by multiple instances at the same time.
+* `preview` may generate the same files in multiple instances.
+
+Usually the OS native scheduler already provides some sort of protection against parallel execution:
+
+* The Windows scheduler does this by default
+* Linux cron can leverage the utility [`flock`](https://linux.die.net/man/1/flock) to do the same:
+
+```
+/usr/bin/flock -w 0 /var/cron.lock ascli ...
+```
+
+`ascli` natively supports a locking mechanism with option `lock_port`.
+(Technically, this opens a local TCP server port, and fails if this port is already used, providing a local lock. Lock is released when process exits).
+
+Example:
+
+Run this same command in two separate terminals within less than 30 seconds:
+
+```
+ascli config echo @ruby:'sleep(30)' --lock-port=12345
+```
+
+The first instance will sleep 30 seconds, the second one will immediately exit like this:
+
+```
+WARN -- : Another instance is already running (Address already in use - bind(2) for "127.0.0.1" port 12345).
+```
+
+## "Proven&ccedil;ale"
+
+`ascp`, the underlying executable implementing Aspera file transfer using FASP, has a capability to not only access the local file system (using system's `open`,`read`,`write`,`close` primitives), but also to do the same operations on other data storage such as S3, Hadoop and others. This mechanism is call *PVCL*. Several *PVCL* adapters are available, some are embedded in `ascp`
+, some are provided om shared libraries and must be activated. (e.g. using `trapd`)
+
+The list of supported *PVCL* adapters can be retried with command:

+```
+
+Here we can see the adapters: `process`, `shares`, `noded`, `faux`, `file`, `stdio`, `stdio-tar`.
+
+Those adapters can be used wherever a file path is used in `ascp` including configuration. They act as a pseudo "drive".
+
+The simplified format is:
+
+```
+<adapter>:///<sub file path>?<arg1>=<val1>&...
+```
+
+One of the adapters, used in this manual, for testing, is `faux`. It is a pseudo file system allowing generation of file data without actual storage (on source or destination).
+
+## <a name="faux_testing"></a>`faux:` for testing
+
+This is an extract of the man page of `ascp`. This feature is a feature of `ascp`, not `ascli`
+
+This adapter can be used to simulate a file or a directory.
+
+To send uninitialized data in place of an actual source file, the source file is replaced with an argument of the form `faux:///fname?fsize` where:
+
+* `fname` is the name that will be assigned to the file on the destination
+* `fsize` is the number of bytes that will be sent (in decimal).
+
+Note that the character `?` is a special shell character (wildcard), so `faux` file specification on command line shall be protected (using `\?` and `\&` or using quotes). If not, the shell may give error: `no matches found` or equivalent.
+
+For all sizes, a suffix can be added (case insensitive) to the size: k,m,g,t,p,e (values are power of 2, e.g. 1M is 2^20, i.e. 1 mebibyte, not megabyte). The maximum allowed value is 8*2^60. Very large `faux` file sizes (petabyte range and above) will likely fail due to lack of system memory unless `faux://`.
+
+To send uninitialized data in place of a source directory, the source argument is replaced with an argument of the form:
+
+```
+faux:///dirname?<arg1>=<val1>&...
+```
+
+`dirname` is the folder name and can contain `/` to specify a subfolder.
+
+Supported arguments are:
+
+<table>
+<tr><th>name</th><th>type</th><th>default</th><th>description</th></tr>
+<tr><td>count</td><td>int</td><td>mandatory</td><td>number of files</td></tr>
+<tr><td>file</td><td>string</td><td>file</td><td>basename for files</td></tr>
+<tr><td>size</td><td>int</td><td>0</td><td>size of first file.</td></tr>
+<tr><td>inc</td><td>int</td><td>0</td><td>increment applied to determine next file size</td></tr>
+<tr><td>seq</td><td>sequential<br/>random</td><td>sequential</td><td>sequence in determining next file size</td></tr>
+<tr><td>buf_init</td><td>none<br/>zero<br/>random</td><td>zero</td><td>how source data initialized.<br/>Option 'none' is not allowed for downloads.</td></tr>
+</table>
+
+
+The sequence parameter is applied as follows:
+
+* If `seq` is `random` then each file size is:
+
+  * size +/- (inc * rand())
+  * Where rand is a random number between 0 and 1
+  * Note that file size must not be negative, inc will be set to size if it is greater than size
+  * Similarly, overall file size must be less than 8 * 2^60. If size + inc is greater, inc will be reduced to limit size + inc to 7 * 2^60.
 
-It is possible to ensure that a given command is only run once at a time with parameter: `--lock-port=nnnn`. This is especially usefull when scheduling a command on a regular basis, for instance involving transfers, and a transfer may last longer than the execution period.
+* If `seq` is `sequential` then each file size is:
 
-This opens a local TCP server port, and fails if this port is already used, providing a local lock.
+  * size + ((fileindex - 1) * inc)
+  * Where first file is index 1
+  * So file1 is size bytes, file2 is size + inc bytes, file3 is size + inc * 2 bytes, etc.
+  * As with random, inc will be adjusted if size + (count * inc) is not less then 8 ^ 2^60.
 
-This option is used when the tools is executed automatically, for instance with "preview" generation.
+Filenames generated are of the form: `<file>_<00000 . . . count>_<filesize>`
 
-Usually the OS native scheduler shall already provide some sort of such protection (windows scheduler has it natively, linux cron can leverage `flock`).
+To discard data at the destination, the destination argument is set to `faux://` .
+
+Examples:
+
+* Upload 20 gigabytes of random data to file myfile to directory /Upload
+
+```
+$ ascli server upload faux:///myfile\?20g --to-folder=/Upload
+```
+
+* Upload a file /tmp/sample but do not save results to disk (no docroot on destination)
+
+```
+$ ascli server upload /tmp/sample --to-folder=faux://
+```
+
+* Upload a faux directory `mydir` containing 1 million files, sequentially with sizes ranging from 0 to 2 M - 2 bytes, with the basename of each file being `testfile` to /Upload
+
+```
+$ ascli server upload "faux:///mydir?file=testfile&count=1m&size=0&inc=2&seq=sequential" --to-folder=/Upload
+```

+#### Listing resources
+
+The command `aoc admin res <type> list` lists all entities of given type. It uses paging and multiple requests if necessary.
+
+The option `query` can be optionally used. It expects a Hash using [Extended Value Syntax](#extended), generally provided using: `--query=@json:{...}`. Values are directly sent to the API call and used as a filter on server side.
+
+The following parameters are supported:
+
+* `q` : a filter on name of resource (case insensitive, matches if value is contained in name)
+* `sort`: name of fields to sort results, prefix with `-` for reverse order.
+* `max` : maximum number of items to retrieve (stop pages when the maximum is passed)
+* `pmax` : maximum number of pages to request (stop pages when the maximum is passed)
+* `page` : native api parameter, in general do not use (added by 
+* `per_page` : native api parameter, number of items par api call, in general do not use
+* Other specific parameters depending on resource type.
+
+Both `max` and `pmax` are processed internally in `ascli`, not included in actual API call and limit the number of successive pages requested to API. `ascli` will return all values using paging if not provided.
+
+Other parameters are directly sent as parameters to the GET request on API.
+
+`page` and `per_page` are normally added by `ascli` to build successive API calls to get all values if there are more than 1000. (AoC allows a maximum page size of 1000).
+
+`q` and `sort` are available on most resrouce types.
+
+Other parameters depend on the type of entity (refer to AoC API).
+
+Examples:
+
+* List users with `laurent` in name:
 
 ```
---query=@json:'{"per_page":10000}'
+ascli aoc admin res user list --query=--query=@json:'{"q":"laurent"}'

-Refer to the AoC API for full list of query parameters.
+* List external users and sort in reverse alphabetical order using name:
