Follow-up Comment #10, bug #91957 (project xrootd): Thanks so much Andrew, Indeed there was a problem with cmsd which I managed to solve. Now I have a problem while I try to open a file using the root protocol. If I copy a file accessing a local file it works fine: [[log in to unmask]]#/software/at3/root/root-5.30.04_slc57_gcc4.1.2-51_x86-64_PROOF/bin/xrdcp root://tditaller025.pic.es//tmp/hola /tmp/asd.$RANDOM [xrootd] Total 0.00 MB |====================| 100.00 % [inf MB/s] Instead if I try to copy a file using the root protocol, for example: xrdcp root://tditaller025.pic.es//pnfs-disk/pic.es/at3/test/DATA_00152508_physics_MinBias_f241_m433_FLIPA-03-02-00.root /tmp/asd.$RANDOM I get input/output errors on the log files: 120228 12:44:43 18702 cborrego.28430:[log in to unmask] XrootdProtocol: 0100 open rat /pnfs-disk/pic.es/at3/test/DATA_00152508_physics_MinBias_f241_m433_FLIPA-03-02-00.root 120228 12:44:43 18702 cborrego.28430:[log in to unmask] ofs_open: 0-600 fn=/pnfs-disk/pic.es/at3/test/DATA_00152508_physics_MinBias_f241_m433_FLIPA-03-02-00.root 120228 12:44:43 18702 cborrego.28430:[log in to unmask] oss_Open_ufs: fd=512 flags=0 mode=600 path=/pnfs-disk/pic.es/at3/test/DATA_00152508_physics_MinBias_f241_m433_FLIPA-03-02-00.root 120228 12:44:43 18702 cborrego.28430:[log in to unmask] ofs_fstat: fn=/pnfs-disk/pic.es/at3/test/DATA_00152508_physics_MinBias_f241_m433_FLIPA-03-02-00.root 120228 12:44:43 18702 cborrego.28430:[log in to unmask] XrootdResponse: 0100 sending 57 data bytes; status=0 120228 12:44:43 18702 cborrego.28430:[log in to unmask] XrootdProtocol: 0100 req=3013 dlen=0 120228 12:44:43 18702 cborrego.28430:[log in to unmask] XrootdProtocol: 0100 0 fh=0 read 8388608@0 120228 12:44:43 18702 cborrego.28430:[log in to unmask] XrootdResponse: 0100 sendfile 8388608 data bytes; status=0 120228 12:44:43 18702 XrdLink: Unable to send file to cborrego.28430:[log in to unmask]; input/output error 120228 12:44:43 18702 XrootdXeq: cborrego.28430:[log in to unmask] disc 0:00:00 (sendfile failure) 120228 12:44:43 18702 cborrego.28430:[log in to unmask] XrootdFile: closing r /pnfs-disk/pic.es/at3/test/DATA_00152508_physics_MinBias_f241_m433_FLIPA-03-02- I think there is an option which adds a prefix to the file so it can use the root protocol to copy. I have this option which I think I should handle this, but it is not working: mps.mssdir root://xrootd-disk.pic.es/ Thanks so much for any help provided!
