I am configuring squid caches to be siblings of each other and have gotten them to correctly communicate with each other from an ICP perspective and have one of the caches (B) pull content from another cache (A) that already had the object cached, but it seems when it pulls this object that it ends up caching it locally. When a subsequent request is made to cache B, it is found right away, logs a TCP_HIT and returns the object. I would have expected that request to make an ICP request to A again and then retrieve it from it but instead it was in its cache. I believe I verified this as well by looking on disk and there is then an object which did not exist prior. I thought by making the sibling proxy-only that would force to never cache from anything it received from a sibling, but it doesn't appear to be the case.
Thanks
Darren
