########################################################################### # This is a very simple sample configuration file sufficient to start an # # xrootd data server using the default port 1094 and its companion cmsd. # # Trying to use the xrootd will cause the client to simply wait because # # there is no redirector and this configuration file is insufficient to # # start one. Consult the reference manuals on how to create a usable # # configuration file to completely describe a functional xrootd cluster. # # # # On start-up the xrootd will complain about not connecting to the pipe # # named '/var/spool/xrootd/.olb/olbd.admin'. This will continue until the # # cmsd starts. When the cmsd start is will say ' Waiting for primary # # server to login.' Once xrootd is started and connects to the cmsd, the # # cmsd will complain 'Unable to connect socket to localhost' because # # there is no redirector. However, this shows that xrootd and cmsd have # # been correctly installed. # # # # Note: You should always create a *single* configuration file and use it # # when starting each daemon that you need to run in the cluster! # ########################################################################### # The export directive indicates which paths are to be exported. While the # default is '/tmp', we indicate it anyway and add the 'stages attribute # to allow you to start the frm_xfrd to bring in missing files into '/tmp'. # Remove this attribute if you don't want to enable this feature. # all.export /tmp stage # The role directive tells xrootd to run as a data server as part of a # cluster. The causes the xrootd to try to contact the local cmsd which # needs to started as part of of initialization. As a side note, a # redirector would have a manager role. # all.role server # The cmsd running on a data server node needs to know where the redirector # (i.e. manager) is running. In this generic config we simply say that it # is on this host to allow initialization to succeed. However, the final # result is not practically usable. # all.manager localhost 3121 # The copycmd directive tells the frm_xfrd what to use to copy files into # an exported path with the 'stage' attribute. Here we just say this will # be '/bin/cp' to allow the frm_xfrd to actual start to show that it works. # Here missing files are created in /tmp as zero-length files. # frm.xfr.copycmd /bin/cp /dev/null $PFN # The adminpath and pidpath variables indicate where the pid and various # IPC files should be placed # all.adminpath /var/spool/xrootd all.pidpath /var/run/xrootd
