Info Provider for LCG. Compatible with lcg-info-generic version 1.0.22. the section called “Using dCache as an LCG Storage Element” describes how to activate it.

This also made several small changes to the files bin/dcache-core, config/srm.batch, config/gridftpdoor.batch, config/gsidcapdoor.batch, and config/door.batch necessary. The templates etc/node_config.template and etc/dCacheSetup.template also contain some new comments which describe additional parameters for controlling the info provider. However, in most cases the default values work fine and config/dCacheSetup and etc/node_config need not be changed.

Fix of bug in replica manager which caused it to hang if one pool is full.

The OsmInfoExtractor (default module of the PnfsManager) now respects the hsmInstance tag (see the section called “Directory Tags”).

Fix of wrong evaluation of replicaManager parameter in config/dCacheSetup. (Values: yes, no)

All mount commands now use the option nfsvers=2 for compatibility with SL4.

Sanity check in start-up scripts will allow java version 1.5 in addition to 1.4.

Improved performance of replica manager by adding an index to the database. This has to be done manually when upgrading:

[root] # psql -U srmdcache -d replicas -f /opt/d-cache/etc/psql_install_replicas.sql

You can safely ignore the errors produced by this command.

Fix of bug in install/install.sh and bin/dcache-core which prevented the use of strings that happen to be keys in the values in etc/node_config.

Added “Provides: ” to RPM. The old package names are now provided by the new packages.

Added “Provides: pnfs-server” to pnfs-postgresql RPM and added new meta-package pnfs-gdbm to protect from automatic upgrades.

dccp can now handle local files larger than 2GB.

Correct behaviour of dc_stat (dCap client library) in multithreaded environments.

Fix of memory corruption in dCap client library.

Permissions of original file are imposed on destination file when writing with the dCap protocol with URL style.

Added cell command dumpthreadqueues to the PnfsManager. For debugging only.

When a pool has finished receiving a file from a client, it will now set the file to precious before setting the file size in pnfs. Previously, a timeout in the latter operation caused the file to stay in “receiving from client” state, because the filesize was set before the file was set to precious.

The SRM now remembers initial errors in the error string in case of retries.

The space manager now handles full pools in disk-only dCache better.

Introduced ftpDeleteOnConnectionClosed option in config/dCacheSetup. If true the GridFTP door will delete the file when the command channel is dropped. Default is false.
