Yes, it may be an unresponsive server but the end product is a user job crashing according to our users. Some of those connections (later retried) would lead to success. We can switch to level 3 and see as soon as we can design a large scale test: we also have flukes with authentication in general I have not reported this yet (I beleive it to be LDAP related as changing the LDAP setup changed failure rates from 50% to 3% ... but I cannot drop below the 3% failures). In general, could someone indicates what is the most reliable setting for Xrootd to retry upon failures (regardless of delays this may cause) ??
