Oh yeah, of course we can and we would love to :-) It's simply an
oversight than it has not been done to date.
You need to tell me the name of your dcap door(s), e.g., TRIUMF:
http://panda.cern.ch:25980/server/pandamon/query?tp=queue&id=TRIUMF-LCG2-ce1-atlas-lcgpbs
who have:
copyprefixin = dcap://dpool.triumf.lcg/pnfs/triumf.ca/data/^dummy
I think the wisdom from the dCache sites is that it's best to have
multiple doors hiding behind a DNS alias, but even one should be
enough.
Cheers
Graeme
