Hi all, On our XRootD in front of CEPHFS storage[1] we've tried to set it so that the redirector does look ups/"existence checks" itself rather then redirect such lightweight queries. The redirector has the cephfs volume mounted, and has this directive set: cms.dfs lookup central redirect verify retries 2 But every test I try using gfal-ls, xrdfs ls, or something like a curl -I, it appears that the operation gets redirected to one of the xroot servers rather then being performed by the redirector. Is there something else I need to set so the redirector can answer these queries? My only thought so far is that the redirectors only role is "manager": all.role manager Does it need another role to be able to do more then redirect? Or am I grabbing at virtual straws? It of course could be that the client tools are going beyond (or appear to be) what a simple lookup should be and thus the request warrants redirection. But that could be more straw clutching. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance all, Matt [1] xgate.hec.lancs.ac.uk:1094/cephfs/grid/dteam ######################################################################## Use REPLY-ALL to reply to list To unsubscribe from the XROOTD-L list, click the following link: https://listserv.slac.stanford.edu/cgi-bin/wa?SUBED1=XROOTD-L&A=1
