But, when files are on tape only, they appear in GPFS (via stat()) with the real size, but 0 blocks. more precisely, int result = stat64(fileName, &buf); while buf.st_size is in all cases the real size, buf.st_blocks is 0 if the file is only on tape, a reasonable >0 number otherwise. We would like to "publish" to the redirector just the files which are on disk, in a way that remote xrootd requests cannot cause tape recall storms... tommaso _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.cern.ch/support/?136127> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by LCG Savannah http://savannah.cern.ch/ ######################################################################## Use REPLY-ALL to reply to list To unsubscribe from the XROOTD-DEV list, click the following link: https://listserv.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=XROOTD-DEV&A=1
