Hi,

I have a problem after switch my swift working directory from /home/ to 
/gpfs

My jobs was running on PADS, and my input data was stored at /gpfs and 
the swift work directory was set to /home/swiftwork and everything works 
fine.  But when I change my swift working directory from 
/home/yizhu/swiftwork ( in sites.xml) to /gpfs/ci/swift/yizhu, i got 
lots of job failure( about half of them failed).

since /gpfs/ is also a shared file system and should be transparent for 
swift, I have no idea why this happened.
