Files on disk on the Fermi Xrootd cluster

Infrequently the xrootd servers are scanned to find all the files that are on disk. Instead of scanning everything below /glast the scan is split into the subdirectories

/glast/ASP, /glast/Data, /glast/bt, /glast/level0, /glast/mc

The results of the scans are stored in the directory

/nfs/farm/g/glast/u15/xrootd/files_on_disk/<YYYYMMDD>

where <YYYYMMDD> is the date the scan was taken.
There is also a link

/nfs/farm/g/glast/u15/xrootd/files_on_disk/current

that points to the most recent file listing.

Output files

File listings

For each subdirectory that is scanned the results are stored in the file:

filelist<topdir>

and <topdir> is the directory the scan started and '/' are replaced by '_'. For example:
the files below /glast/Data are stored in filelist_glast_Data.
each line contains the

size(Bytes) atime mtime ctime filename host   [migrate-status]

The migrate-status field is optional with vaules:
