perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Andy Lake <>]

Hi,

Thank you. I am not sure how your owmesh file got in the state where its missing parameters like the DataDir. Can you try running the following to reset your owmesh file?

rm /opt/perfsonar_ps/perfsonarbuoy_ma/etc/owmesh.conf

  yum reinstall perl-perfSONAR_PS-perfSONARBUOY-config

        /opt/perfsonar_ps/toolkit/scripts/upgrade/upgrade_owmesh_traceroute.sh

        chmod o+r /opt/perfsonar_ps/perfsonarbuoy_ma/etc/owmesh.conf

        reboot

After the host reboots add back your tests via the GUI. That should hopefully get things back to a normal state. 

Thanks,

Andy

Yes, I am scheduling tests using GUI on toolkit ( https://.../toolkit/admin/regular_testing/). I have also run bwctl by hand as follows,

As I have mentioned one version of owmesh.conf file is after scheduling bwctl test and another one before scheduling the test.




Thanks

Hi,

How are you configuring your tests? Are you using the regular testing GUI on the toolkit or are you doing things by hand?  Also, why are there two versions of your owmesh file?

Thanks,

Andy

Hi,

My perfsonar still is not running perfSONAR-BUOY Regular Testing (Throughput and One-way Latency).

 Please help me to solve the problem.

Hi,

Can you send /opt/perfsonar_ps/perfsonarbuoy_ma/etc/owmesh.conf?

Thanks,
