Hi all, Suggestion on config simplification would be welcome here. I can propose two simplification to avoid "feature interaction": a) Default all paths exported by the old to be r/w. That means if you want an explicit r/o path, you will have to declare it as such. If you don't write operations will be redirected to r/o servers and the operation will fail at that point. b) In the absence of an oss.cache directive, the olb would infer file systems from the olb.path directive (if any) to figure out for which file systems it must report space usage. What do people think of that? I'm really looking for suggestions on simplification here. without them, I'm sort of at a loss to make things simpler.

As far as I can tell your problem is that the oss part is not configured. I have to talk to Andy to find out if it is possible to get away without the oss part. Anyhow, I appended the two config files for our data servers (xrootd-ddev_1.cf) and redirector (xrootd-ddev_1rdr.cf). I hope that helps.
