your SAM station and then to the directory the sam command is
invoked.
Used e.g. by the JIM software


Python Usage:
	from Sam import sam
	result = sam.dhGetLite(...)

Return value: cpid (int)

Arguments are passed as keyword-value pairs, as in:
	 myfunc(arg1='myarg', arg2='anotherarg', d=1)

Argument Keyword Description:
	(*) indicates that this keyword is required
	>>> indicates that either the API object or the CLI equivalent (<<<) is required

    c                          SamBoolean           automatically close all servants after each method call
    corbaCallTimeout           int                  time in seconds for CORBA method calls to return before timing out (default: 0; zero implies no timeout)

    definitionName             string               Name of the dataset

    group                      string               group under which the project should be run
    nodeName                   string               node where station should deliver files
    numFiles                   int                  Number of files to be pulled (default is to pull all files)
    retryInterval              int                  retry interval base in seconds; will multiply this base times retryCount (default: 5)
    retryJitter                int                  retry jitter, random jitter added to base retry interval times retryCount (default: 5)
    retryMaxCount              int                  number of times to retry CORBA calls for retriable exceptions (default: 25; zero implies no retries)
    s                          SamBoolean           retrySilently mode (do not issue messages to stderr on proxy retries)
    snapshotId                 int                  Snapshot Id of the dataset
(*) station                    string               station where this consumer process is running
    t                          SamBoolean           time-it mode (print additional info on timings)
    timeout                    int                  timeout value in seconds, xxx
    v                          SamBoolean           verbose mode
