Abstract

XrootdFS is a FUSE based mountable Posix filesystem. It glues all the data servers in a Xrootd storage cluster together and presents it as a single, Posix compliant, multi-user networked filesystem. The ways XrootdFS handles IO operations and metadata operations are specifically designed for the Xrootd’s unique redirection mechanism. With XrootdFS we can use the Xrootd storage system as a Grid Storage Element. XrootdFS has been adopted by many Xrootd sites for data management, as well as for data access by applications that do not use the native Xrootd interface.
