RE: db to HPSS

["Douglas Olson" <dlolson@lbl.gov>]

The cache manager expects all files for a federation to be in
the same directory in HPSS.  It uses the Objy catalog
for placement on disk. We have only tried this
(to my knowledge) for all files, of interest
to the cache manager, being in one directory
also. Perhaps it is smart enough to handle
files in arbitrary directories.
Luis, do you know?
