Hello, and greetings from Jefferson Lab! After playing around a bit with the oss.rsscmd directive, I am now confused and hope that someone can clarify (1) how this functionality is supposed to work, and (2) if it is something that anybody actually uses. Here are the relevant parts of my config: oss.localroot /local/xrd all.export /mss check dread forcero readonly stage noxattrs oss.rsscmd /local/larrieu/eclipse-git/jasmine/assemblies/lib/rsscmd oss.stagecmd /local/larrieu/eclipse-git/jasmine/assemblies/lib/stagecmd The directory /local/xrd/mss is empty, and it is intended to reflect the contents of the tape library. I implemented both “dlist” and “statx" commands and verified that they functioned as expected. Yet, when I use xrdfs to stat one of the directories or to list its contents, I don’t get the behavior that I expect. For example: [larrieu@moria lib]$ ./rsscmd statx /mss/accel 0 d rwxrwxr-x 1 1608 106 1666731248 0 1666731248 0 1 0 [larrieu@moria lib]$ xrdfs localhost stat /mss/accel Path: /mss/accel Id: 0 Size: 0 MTime: 2022-10-25 20:54:08 CTime: 1970-01-01 00:00:00 ATime: 2022-10-25 20:54:08 Flags: 29 (XBitSet|Other|Offline|IsReadable) Mode: 0555 Owner: larrieu Group: epics-grp [larrieu@moria lib]$ ./rsscmd dlist /mss/accel 0 bubble casa cis czar data dup peppo positron [larrieu@moria lib]$ xrdfs localhost ls /mss/accel /mss/accel Note that “xrdfs stat” does not indicate that /mss/accel is a directory, despite the information returned from “rsscmd statx”, and “xrdfs ls” does not list any of the directory contents, despite the information returned from “rsscmd dlist”. Am I working from a mistaken understanding of how this should work? I was hoping to get some input from experts before starting to dig through the code. Thanks for any help you can provide.
