perfsonar development work

[Maciej Glowiak <>]

Hi All

It seems the result codes hierarchy may be inconsistent now and a bit 
confusing. I answered several e-mails with questions about it so I 
decided to write to developers of services and client apps.

The inconsistency is that some of you are using "failure.*" and the 
other are using "error.*". It was my fault, because I didn't update the 
page:


=================================================================
  http://wiki.perfsonar.net/jra1-wiki/index.php/Result_codes
=================================================================


The second thing is if we have services that may have different 
implementations such as MP or MA.

I suggest to use:

=================================================================
   error.mp.sshtelnet.*
   error.mp.tcmp.*
   error.mp.snmp.*

   etc.

Or in some cases:

   error.mp.*

if the error is common for all of MPs.
=================================================================

The same situation should be in case of MA.

=================================================================
   error.ma.sql.*
   error.ma.rrd.*

   etc.

or in some cases:

   error.ma.*

if the error is common for all of MAs.
=================================================================

Sorry if it causes any changes in your code, but the result code 
schema/hierarchy should be consistent and we didn't think about it before.

After updating your result code, please put their list to the 
Deliverable if necessary (contact Nicolas) and on:

=================================================================
http://wiki.perfsonar.net/jra1-wiki/index.php/Result_code_hierarchy
=================================================================

Thanks in advance
and best regards

Maciej
