I can't attend, family business clashes:
- NDGF : Not that much action. A bit of dcache testing. Verified that
dcap works with IPv6, setting up nfs4.1 testing over ipv6.
- xrootd: harder testing of 4.0.0rc3 and dcache. It turns out that the
"standard" is vague, and that xrootd itself lies.
Background: http://xrootd.org/doc/dev4/XRdv300.htm#_Toc372751539 says
that the node response is:
xy[::aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd.eee]:ppppp
aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd.eee
is the IPv4 portion of the IPV6 node address, for IPV4
environments. Otherwise, a true IPV6 address is returned.
However, xrootd itself only supports ::ffff:aaa.bbb.ccc.ddd type IPv6
addresses, not true IPv6 addresses.
Also, when connecting to a xrootd server with the new client over IPv6,
the server will only reply with IPv4 addresses, so all further traffic
goes over IPv4.
I have tried subscribing to the xrootd maillist, but not gotten approved
yet..
Basically we need to get clarification on the data structures, since the
document is extremely vague (and or xrootd implements it wrong).
