Hi Brian,<br>
<br>
Well, an interesting predicament you have. I’d suggest a symlink.<br>
<br>
/xenon1t –&gt; /mnt/data<br>
<br>
and then export xenon1t<br>
<br>
It’s much easier if the name spaces are straightened out well ahead of people storing files into the server.<br>

<br>
For the OSG data federation, we want to assign each VO a certain namespace (let&#39;s say the &quot;Xenon1T&quot; VO gets assigned /xenon1t).<br>
<br>
The Xrootd server that wants to export its data has the Xenon1T files mounted at /mnt/data. So, the Xenon1T file /foo is physically at:<br>
<br>
/mnt/data/foo<br>
but should be exported as:<br>
<br>
/xenon1t/foo<br>
That is, root://xrootd.example.com:1094//xenon1t/foo.<br>
<br>
Looking at the documentation, I thought oss.remoteroot was the way to integrate this: I think was incorrect.<br>
<br>
What&#39;s the right way to configure the OFS / OSS for this setup?<br>
<br>
