Hi Matevz, Sorry to mislead you. Every xrootd works with a single cmsd on the local machine. That cmsd can affiliate with any number (well, 8) of manager cmsd's. There is a slight variation for redirector xrootd's as they automatically affiliate with every redirector cmsd in the cluster forming a star network. But that is not germane to your question here. So, did I confuse you more or did I de-confuse you?

Hmmh, the first question in my first mail today was if it is possible to run two cmsds to report to a single xrootd, well, I thought it was asking this :) As the answer seemed affirmative, I started thinking how to put this triplet together ... and that was where all my questions were coming from. Now it seems this is actually not possible :) and that I should just do the static redirection thingy.
