perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Andy Lake <>]

Hi Roderick,

Can you send me the hostnames or IPs of the services you are not seeing? As 
far as I can tell all of the perfsonar 3.2.2 perfsonar services that are 
registering with the old lookup service should be listed. I see a bunch of 
old services listed. I am trying to figure out if the problem is with one of 
our backward compatibility scripts or if it's a case where the old LS is 
losing the registration.

Thanks,
Andy
