Hi Matt, The warning is issued, I suspect, is because the cms.sched directive was restricted to the manager (i.e. redirector). It should not be as it applies to the redirector and data servers. The recoding of the perf information occurs periodically and not atthe interval that it is reported. This is to keep the log file at a reasonable size. See the cms.ping directive for more information.... https://xrootd.slac.stanford.edu/doc/dev54/cms_config.htm#_Toc53611094 As for only one node reporting information, make sure each data server has been properly configured and restarted.

Looking in the logs we only have one instance of metric information arriving in our manager's cmsd.log, lines like: > 230120 14:04:26 259335 Node: stor015.hec.lancs.ac.uk load=30; cpu=6 net=99 inq=45 mem=3 pag=0 dsk=2147483647 utl=74 shr=[100 26 0] ref=[10906 1721] > > These metrics were delivered once, about 10 minutes after the servers were restarted and we've not seen any mentions in the logs since. I'm not sure if this is a data point or just noise though. Data is still flowing to the xrootd servers though, in the round-robin fashion. > > My apologies if I'm missing something as equally straightforward as with my original mail, but I'd appreciate any pointers. > > Thanks again, and have a good weekend all, > Matt > > ________________________________________ > From: Fischer, Max (SCC) <[log in to unmask]> > Sent: 20 January 2023 08:06 > To: Doidge, Matt > Cc: [log in to unmask] > Subject: [External] Re: cmsd.sched not (noticeably) load balancing redirection > > This email originated outside the University.
