perfSONAR Announcements

[Andrew Lake <>]

All,

perfSONAR 5.1.0 is now available as a general release. This release replaces the default UI with a new one based on Grafana, adds multi-threaded iperf3 support to pScheduler, additional OS support and many other changes. Full release notes can be found here: https://www.perfsonar.net/releasenotes-2024-06-11-5-1-0.html

If you have an existing perfSONAR installation running auto-updates, you should automatically get the new version. If you would like to perform a new installation see the perfSONAR documentation at https://docs.perfsonar.net/#installation. Keep in mind it may take up to 24 hours for all package repositories to update. 

Additionally, MaDDash has been deprecated in favor of a new Grafana-based solution. If you have an existing MaDDash installation it will not be automatically updated. If you would like a step-by-step guide on setting up a central archive and Grafana interface see https://docs.perfsonar.net/cookbook_central_archive.html 

Thank you to everyone that helped test the beta version of 5.1.0. That testing was invaluable to reaching this final release. We look forward to your feedback on this latest version and as always let the development team know if you have any questions.

Thank you,

The perfSONAR Development Team
