EOS is an open-source storage software solution to manage multi PB storage for the CERN Large Hadron Collidor LHC. Core of the implementation is the XRootD framework providing a feature-rich remote access protocol. | EOS is a software solution that aims to provide fast and reliable multi-PB disk-only storage technology for both LHC and non-LHC use-cases at CERN. The core of the implementation is the XRootD framework which provides feature-rich remote access protocol. The storage system is running on commodity hardware with disks in JBOD configuration. It is written mostly in C/C++, with some of the extra modules in Python. Files can be accessed via native XRootD protocol, a POSIX-like FUSE client or HTTP(S) & WebDav protocol. |

The mounted file systems are: |
* eoscms | * eoscms --> ''/eos/cms/'' |
* eoslhcb | * eoslhcb --> ''/eos/lhcb/'' |
* eosuser | * eosuser --> ''/eos/user/'' |
| To access these file systems, you need to have a CERN Kerberos ticket as for the EOS commands, but in addition you need to pass the ticket to the fuse system with the command ''eosfusebind'', similar to the ''aklog'' command for AFS. You need therefore to execute the following commands:\\ ''kinit <cern_username>@CERN.CH ; eosfusebind'' |
