perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

Hi Roy;

I am going to CC the performance-node-users list on this response.

On 7/5/11 2:06 PM, thus spake 
:

The toolkit can be brought up in 'diagnostic mode', e.g. don't configure 
any regular testing options at all, and it will function simply as 
testing point/beacon on the network.  It will not attempt to store 
measurement data on the host's harddrive when used in this manner.

Other nodes will be able to then test against this node, provided they 
know it's hostname/address.  Every measurement host that does set up a 
test with the beacon, will then be in possession of test results.

Does this answer your question?  Thanks;
