perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Jason Zurawski <>]

Hello Takatoshi;

Unfortunately we will only be releasing and supporting for CentOS 5.5, 
x86 architecture for this and future releases 
(http://psps.perfsonar.net/supportedsystems.html).  The x86 RPMs should 
be compatible with x86_64, or you can build from SRPMs as you suggest. 
To correct your RPM repo file you can delete the $ARCH variable and 
replace it with i386.

Thanks;

-jason
