Hi, I have an issue with my redirector (XRootD 5.5.0) with the command: /usr/bin/xrdfs cmsio7.rc.ufl.edu:1094 stat //store/mc/SAM/GenericTTbar/AODSIM/CMSSW_9_2_6_91X_mcRun1_realistic_v2-v1/00000/A64CCCF2-5C76-E711-B359-0CC47A78A3F8.root Usually, the command returns in less than 5 seconds, but from time to time, it hangs here: [2022-12-09 00:07:54.714793 +0100][Debug ][TaskMgr ] Registering task: "StreamConnectorTask for cmsio7.rc.ufl.edu:1094" to be run at: [2022-12-09 00:09:54 +0100] and eventually returns in more than 2 minutes. Other USCMS Tier2 sites do not have this issue. There are 7 servers under the redirector and they do not have this issue. I thought the cmsd directive, cms.dfs might have something to do with this, so I tried a different option. But that didn't change anything. My current config uses this option for the cms.dfs directive: cms.dfs limit 0 lookup distrib mdhold 0 redirect immed retries 2 What could be the source of the problem?
