Hi Matevz and Wei, That said, indeed the proxy server uses some of the Ffs functions. It doesn't use fuse itself. The particular function employed allow the proxy server to issue certain operations against all of the active servers in the cluster. We just used that part to allow the proxy to present a composite view of the cluster.

They provide a Posix interface on top of Xrootd's posix interface, but aggregate the results from individual date servers. For example, the readdir() (the kernel version, not user version) collect all dirents from data servers, remove duplicated ones, hide file.fail if "file" exists, etc, and handle return code and errno. > > regards, > Wei Yang | [log in to unmask] | 650-926-3338(O) > > > > > On Oct 15, 2012, at 7:49 PM, Matevz Tadel wrote: > >> Hi, >> >> Is fuse module working for people?
