perfSONAR Announcements

[Andrew Lake <>]

All,

The first beta of the next version of perfSONAR 4.4.0 is now available. This is not a final release and should not be put on production systems. We are making it available for wider testing to help get it ready for a final release in the near future. Full release notes can be found here: https://www.perfsonar.net/releasenotes-2021-05-19-4-4-0b1.html

Instructions for installing the beta using the various distribution methods can be found here: http://docs.perfsonar.net/install_rcs.html. If you have a dedicated tester that permanently points at a staging repository, it may have already updated if it is running auto-updates.

As always, your help testing is much appreciated and critical to a successful release. We look forward to your feedback.

Thank you,

The perfSONAR Development Team
