Hi Costin, I could easily reproduce the first problem, meaning opaque info included in the path (this can be easily fix). But, I was not able to see the 'directory' effect, e.g.: xrdfs slc7-test ls -l /tmp/data?DummyParam -rw- 2016-02-22 14:23:06 0 /tmp/data?DummyParam/file1 -rw- 2016-02-22 14:23:07 0 /tmp/data?DummyParam/file2 -rw- 2016-01-21 15:16:54 1832850589 /tmp/data?DummyParam/ESD.05723687._000004.pool.root.1 -rw- 2016-03-04 14:21:39 0 /tmp/data?DummyParam/new_file Files are not listed as directories and their size is correct. Could you give some more details on what params are you using?
