perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

Choi, even though it is probably going to "make you crazy" (it is like a
shot:  it will hurt, but won't be for too long), I consider your best bet is
to install  pS services directly to the hd and not use the Toolkit.  This
way, the servers will still be available for other purposes.

Subject: [perfsonar-user] The way to implement perfSONAR_PS toolkit into
Hard-Disk

Hi.

I've got a mission that deploying the perfSONAR_PS toolkit system into many
places.

It's OK when the PC is managed well on each node. But, my boss wants to use
these PC to another purpose. It's the problem. PS toolkit needs dedicated
PC.
When the perfSONAR_PS toolkit is installed on a PC, you know, the PC can't
be used another way. It supposed to being focused on it's job(LS things,
BWCTL managing, etc..) only. 

So, I want to implement the Toolkit image into hard disk drive. Is it
possible?

According my memory, Toolkit system resets the userspace when the PC is
rebooting. It's the problem that the user that have no root access can't use
the resources of PC. because it'll be removed soon.

But I can't install perfSONAR_PS into regular Linux box. It makes me crazy.

Please let me know how to do implement toolkit into hard disk. It'll be very
thankful.

Best Regards,
Tae-Yang Choi.
