Description

In the work we present our effort in designing and building of Petabyte-level storage element based on Xrootd with storage backend and SRM integration. This Storage Element is implemented at the German LCG Tier-1 Center 'GridKa' for the ALICE experiment. Motivation, use cases and details of implementations are presented. It's shown that Xrootd SE at GridKa has no single point of failure and satisfies the initial requirements.
