Hello,

  I am trying to make better use of extended attributes.  

On one xrootd dataserver, data comes to disk via gridftp dsi interface.  On this data server
the only extended attribute : user.XrdFrm.Pfn is created automatically.  I also access this
storage through xrootdfs mount and the cp command and the checksum extended attribute
is not automatically created.

I am using the checksum directive - 
xrootd.chksum max 3 adler32 /usr/bin/xrdadler32


Here is what I see in a random file -

[root@atlasfs ~]# getfattr -L /data/1/public/1A/4A3EB14F0ACD0200086% 
getfattr: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names
# file: data/1/public/1A/4A3EB14F0ACD0200086%
user.XrdFrm.Pfn


Here is the contents of the extended attribute -

[root@atlasfs ~]# getfattr -n user.XrdFrm.Pfn /data/1/public/1A/4A3EB14F0ACD0200086%getfattr: Removing leading '/' from absolute path names
# file: data/1/public/1A/4A3EB14F0ACD0200086%
user.XrdFrm.Pfn="/atlas/dq2/user/chakanau/pt90v1/user.chakanau.pt90v1.physics_Egamma.NTUP_PHOTON.p868.data11_7TeV.00191139.physics_Egamma.merge.NTUP_PHOTON.f415_m1025_p868.120522233845/user.chakanau.008283._1504623807.log.tgz"


Since this is a system with oss.space directive, the symlinks created in the exported area (/atlas)  have the same information.

I can use the frm_admin command to create the checksum extended attribute for the file - user.XrdCks.adler32, but would like it to occur automatically.

Any suggestions.

Cheers,

Doug Benjamin
