N/A | Corrupted LHCb file(s) | ||
Proposal: On unlink call, remove any existing checksum first? | Discussion suggested this might be a more complex situation and warrants further though. Not mixing protocols might mitigate these situations (for the most part … ) | ||

NTR (other than that I'm planning to push all our Xrootd services to 5.4.3-release when it finally gets an rpm)
It might be worth noting that I think Brunel are fairly advanced on their Cephfs/xrootd testing with CMS [although Raul doesn't come to *this* meeting]

Ran over our redirector plan in this morning’s Storage Meeting. Plans on hold until after Matt is back from the training week. Current simple setup appears to be holding up quite well. Will also upgrade to 5.4.3.
Several of us at Lancaster are now “equipped” to assist with any rucio testing.
Less interesting cephfs continues to replace all the dodgy NFS uses at the site, swapped out the arc session directories.
