Hi Dan, I have no experience with castor, but the way it advertises itself to the world is as separate endpoints, i.e. multiple SEs. The error you get at the end is Error='DataManager error: Completely failed to replicate file. The storage element is not currently valid. SE.isValid: StorageElement is not allowed for VO.' Attempts=125 Of course it would be better if it checked first if it was allowed to write somewhere before it tried to transfer the file, but unless we can think of a quick hack to fix this, it probably comes under 'feature request' and will never see the light of day in the dirac development. Our autoconfig just numbers the different SEs and the one for na62 is RAL-LCG21-disk. Currently the only way to work this out is to look at the dirac configuration page: https://dirac.gridpp.ac.uk/DIRAC/GridPP/[your_vo_here]_user/systems/configuration/browseRemoteConfig and then click on Resources -> StorageElements and look for some promising ones.

Hi,
I have submitted a dirac-dms-replicate-and-register-request yesterday and looks like it’s still waiting:

Any idea why?
Best regards, Dan
