Radu Popescu (CERN)
Description

Coordination meeting for common projects of CernVM-FS and XRootD.

Radu found a bug in the server-side HTTP plugin of XRootD, related to HEAD requests. This bug was detected during CVMFS replication tests from an XRootD proxy.

A ticket was opened on the XRootD GitHub page and the issue will be discussed with the developer of the HTTP plugin.

Radu will setup up a stress test - multiple CVMFS client mounts should load an Xcache instance. The VM running Xcache can possibly be made accessible from the outside, to be used by Wei, too, at SLAC.

Andy is working on the context management plugin, needed to be able to invalidate CVMFS manifests and other special files.

Next meeting will be before CHEP, if there are any new developments.

Radu, Jakob, Andy and Wei will be at CHEP.
