Hi Owen,
[...] leave out Castor and DPM due to the low level of storage deployment they have compared to dCache.
Last time I checked there were some 130 DPM installations, compared to some 60 dCache and 7 CASTOR installations. The amount of disk storage at the dCache T1 and T2 sites will be larger than that of CASTOR (T0, T1) and DPM (T2) combined, but not by a lot, maybe 60 vs. 40%. For tape it is 50-50. I would not call that low at all, certainly not w.r.t. GLUE: there the DPM sites supporting many VOs might well dominate!
