It's the same as "remote", but prevents using the protocol in local context (e.g. to upload data from some site's WNs to the local SE). This may be useful for sites with different storage infrastructure for local and remote transfers.

Some sites have distinct local and remote storage infrastructure (e.g. use different endpoints for uploads from WNs and transfers from external sites). DIRAC already support local endpoint via "Access" parameter (can be set to local). However, currently in case of a failure SE operation will fall back to remote protocols, which can be undesirable (e.g. if it can create race conditions between uploads via local and remote endpoints). To address the problem, we introduce "remoteonly" value for the Access parameter, which acts similarly to "remote" but prevents fallbacks to the protocol in local context.
