Hi Owen,
That's good to hear that the new version has been released.
Is this the correct changelog to look at?
http://www.dcache.org/manuals/Book/rf-changelog-1665-1681.shtml
I think this page has been online for a while; are there any additional
changes/bug fixes that made it into the release? What about the
non-blocking I/O that should fix the CLOSE_WAIT problem?
Presumably you have tested the 1.6.6-5 -> 1.7.0-16 upgrade path. I ask
because the link:
http://www.dcache.org/manuals/yaim-dcache-howto.shtml
states "For now this is only meant for installations from scratch". Were
there any other problems during upgrade, for example, the integration
of VOMs?
Cheers,
Greig
