perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

["Robert V. Bolton" <>]

Thanks Jason. I was planning on using just a few tools on RHEL 6.

Hey Robert;

We don't have a complete guide for how to do this, but there is some information here that will be useful:

Those that have taken this road before have noted that it can be problematic when attempting to use some of the RPMs due to version mismatches and the like (particularly if you are starting with something that != CentOS 5/6).  To prevent headaches we would recommend just sticking with a pSPT if you want all the pSPT functionality.  If you plan to just install a tool or two (like BWCTL and it's related libraries), the RPM method should work fine. 

Thanks;

Hello,

I'm looking to build a perfSONAR box without using the toolkit, but I can't seem to find any documentation on how to go about doing this. Do I just need to add the I2 repos and use the web100 kernel and then install the packages I need, or is it a little more complicated than that?
