That is, the OSG would like to ship a config-only RPM that adds a few sane defaults to the Xrootd config as a separate configuration file. We would naturally put these extensions in /etc/xrootd/config.d (to mirror /etc/condor/config.d); however, we'd really hate to adopt a naming scheme that differs from upstream. For example, if OSG used /etc/xrootd/config.d and XRootD upstream used /etc/xrootd/conf.d starting in 5.0, many folks would be confused. Even if we don't update the upstream templates in 4.9.0 to look at a config directory, I'd like to "reserve" the appropriate value for the future. ‹ You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
