Hello, i've been struggling with the proper way of taking an xrootd node (aka raid server) out of service because of aging disks. I shutdown the xrootd/cmsd process of this raid. But then it takes a very long time (tens of minutes or never) to make the remaining xrootd cluster visible/accessible again on the clients. Sometimes a reboot of client helps but not always. Restarting the services on the xrootd command node does not help. So what is the correct procedure to takedown a xrootd server node ?
