Hi Paul, Correct that was introduced in 3.0.0 but that isn't the problem. It seems, like Brian points out, the client expects stat information to be returned with the open (it shouldn't and we are checking on this). Since dCache never returns stat information on the open, as far as I know, the client gets confused and ges into a recovery mode that, in itself, is faulty. So, there is no reason to finger-point dCache. Let us figure out of the fault lies with the client.
