perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Szymon Trocha <>]

Hi,

in v 3.3.2 I have changed timezone as per installation guide but it 
seems that it's not taken into account by the toolkit e.g. all logs are 
with wrong timestamps including timestamps in the logs. I also wonder 
whether it impacts the tests as I can't see any pingER results - the GUI 
says "No results":

[root@ps1
 perfsonar]# date
Thu Apr  3 09:05:41 CEST 2014
[root@ps1
 perfsonar]# cat /etc/sysconfig/clock | grep ZONE
ZONE="Europe/Warsaw"
[root@ps1
 perfsonar]#

Here is what I see through GUI:

When I'm trying to graph ping results from yesterday (which means Star: 
Apr 2, End Apr 2) the gui says No results and the pinger.log says:
