ALICE TPC - Operation nor supported

Many thanks for the amazing response; it worked.

I understand that this flag disables SSS auth when doing an XRootD
transfer with another FST node.

XRootD TPC with EOS

Hi George, EOS can do delegated xrootd TPC transfers and indeed it needs a XRootD proxy service in front that will handle the traffic. The EOS_FST_NO_SSS_ENFORCEMENT=1 is not needed in case you use the proxy service in front. This env can be used for instances that you control (both source and destination) but is not a recommended way for doing TPC with external sites. All the steps to set this up are already laid out in the link that you pasted. Cheers, Elvin

Elvin made the following comment “This env can be used for instances that you control (both source and destination) but is not a recommended way for doing TPC with external sites” which sounds like against using the EOS_FST_NO_SSS_ENFORCEMENT

Best,

George
