Hi Andy, > Agreed that the documentation is wrong. In both cases, only the logical > file name is passed (i.e., without the localroot). The reason that you see > the localroot prefix in the second prepadd message is because it was added > in by the olbd. Thus my olb.prep script retrieves the filename with the localroot, i.e. a PFN. But your next statement is that all filenames that are passed around should be LFNs. So this means there is a bug there, isn't there? > In general, all filenames passed around the system are > LFN's (where PFN's are the ones that have the localroot added).
