Wrong checksum disk replica¶
How to reproduce the problem¶
Archive a file to tape:
[itctabuild02] ~ > echo -n '1234567890' > ten_byte_file.txt
[itctabuild02] ~ > run_eosuser1_shell
[itctabuild02] ~ (krb5=eosuser1)> xrdcp ten_byte_file.txt root://localhost//eos/dev/userfiles/testdir_1
[10B/10B][100%][==================================================][10B/s]
[itctabuild02] ~ (krb5=eosuser1)> exit
exit
[itctabuild02] ~ >
Observe that the file is only on tape (d0::t1):
[itctabuild02] ~ > run_eosuser1_shell
[itctabuild02] ~ (krb5=eosuser1)> eos root://localhost ls -y /eos/dev/userfiles/testdir_1/ten_byte_file.txt
d0::t1 -rw-r--r-- 1 eosuser1 eosuser1 10 Apr 16 11:55 ten_byte_file.txt
[itctabuild02] ~ (krb5=eosuser1)> exit
exit
[itctabuild02] ~ >
Request that the file be retrieved from tape:
[itctabuild02] ~ > run_eospoweruser1_shell
[itctabuild02] ~ (krb5=eospoweruser1)> xrdfs localhost prepare -s /eos/dev/userfiles/testdir_1/ten_byte_file.txt
eos:044620011458020202280000000001000042:e03bfa81.5e982b25:11
[itctabuild02] ~ (krb5=eospoweruser1)> exit
exit
[itctabuild02] ~ >
Observe that the file is both on disk and on tape (d1::t1):
[itctabuild02] ~ > run_eosuser1_shell
[itctabuild02] ~ (krb5=eosuser1)> eos root://localhost ls -y /eos/dev/userfiles/testdir_1/ten_byte_file.txt
d1::t1 -rw-r--r-- 2 eosuser1 eosuser1 10 Apr 16 11:55 ten_byte_file.txt

Determine the location of the underlying physical file on the EOS FST and give it different contents whilst preserving its size:
[itctabuild02] ~ > sudo eos root://localhost fileinfo /eos/dev/userfiles/testdir_1/ten_byte_file.txt --fullpath

Observe that EOS ignores an end user’s request to retrieve the file from tape because EOS believes the disk replica already exists:

How an end user can recover the data¶
Ask EOS to evict the disk replica:
[itctabuild02] ~ > run_eospoweruser1_shell
[itctabuild02] ~ (krb5=eospoweruser1)> xrdfs localhost prepare -e /eos/dev/userfiles/testdir_1/ten_byte_file.txt
[itctabuild02] ~ (krb5=eospoweruser1)> exit
exit
[itctabuild02] ~ >
Observe that EOS now recognises the fact that the disk replica is in fact gone:
[itctabuild02] ~ > run_eosuser1_shell
[itctabuild02] ~ (krb5=eosuser1)> eos root://localhost ls -y /eos/dev/userfiles/testdir_1/ten_byte_file.txt

[itctabuild02] ~ (krb5=eosuser1)> exit
exit
[itctabuild02] ~ >
Copy the recovered file out:
[itctabuild02] ~ > run_eosuser1_shell
[itctabuild02] ~ (krb5=eosuser1)> xrdcp root://localhost//eos/dev/userfiles/testdir_1/ten_byte_file.txt /tmp/tmp_ten_byte_file.txt

What a tape operator can do to recover the data¶
The same as an end user.
