Using cached files from CVMFS when no internet available

Hi,

suppose I am using from my local machine software from cvmfs.

Is it possible to use it without internet connection from cache?
When cvmfs is not mounted.

Hello @drsh2306, welcome to the ROOT forum!

I think if someone can help you with this question, it’s probably @jblomer who I invite to join this conversation.

Hello,

yes, that is possible. Keep in mind though that it only works as long as there is no cache miss. E.g., if for some reason you need a library that hasn’t been loaded before, you’ll see I/O errors.

There is a dedicated forum for cvmfs questions at https://cernvm-forum.cern.ch

Cheers,
Jakob
