Hello Remi

Your problem is due to the configuration of the xrootd servers.
Trying to get an directory listing (/kanga/prod/s5/s4/s3/s2/s1 on
bbrprod05), I see in the xrootd log file:

041122 23:34:55 059 XrootdXeq: User logged in as wilko.6750:18@noric06
pudc: Error opening directory /kanga/prod/s5/s4/s3/s2/s1/; No such file or directory.
041122 23:34:55 059 oss_XrdOssMSS_Xeq: Unable to execute dlist; no such file or directory
041122 23:34:55 059 ofs_opendir: wilko.6750:18@noric06 Unable to open
directory /prod/s5/s4/s3/s2/s1/; No such file or directory

It looks to me that xrootd tries to check the file in HPSS and not on
disk. I tried to get a dir listing from '/store/' and I get a
directory listing from hpss.

Andy: How to configure xrootd so that dir listings are done from a disk
and not HPSS?
Another question comes to my mind: What happens if I remove a file or
directory? Does it get removed from HPSS ?


Cheers,
  Wilko
