New versions of the slk_helpers

(2.2.0) and of the slk_wrappers

We’re excited to announce new commands and scripts designed to simplify data retrieval, following a thorough testing phase with multiple users. We’re aware that large-scale usage could reveal unforeseen challenges, particularly with StrongLink. Therefore, we’ll be actively monitoring system performance and encourage users to provide feedback. This experimental workflow is a collaborative effort, and we’re committed to making it the best possible solution. We’re also working on additional tools to further enhance data transfer to and from the tape archive. If necessary, based on performance data and user feedback, we may adjust or even temporarily deactivate this experimental workflow to ensure system stability and optimal performance.
