perfSONAR Announcements

For those who have used our pScheduler limit configuration helper tool in preparation for the 5.0 release:

 

We have identified and corrected a bug in the limit configuration shipped with the beta version of the perfSONAR Toolkit where throughput tests from untrusted hosts may have been incorrectly denied if they lacked a duration.

 

This problem was also present in the replacement configuration for the throughput-default-time limit recommended by the tool.  If you applied any changes to that limit, please download a fresh copy of the tool and re-run it against the original 4.4.x limit file.  You may also apply the change by hand if you wish; the difference is linked below.
