perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

["Hoover, Christopher" <>]

Thanks, Aaron. This seems to have resolved the issue.

 

For future reference, the line that needs to be added to /opt/perfsonar_ps/ls_registration_daemon/etc/ls_registration_daemon.conf is:

 

external_address_if_name eth0

Hi Chris,

 

That is configured in /opt/perfsonar_ps/toolkit/web/root/gui/services/etc/web_admin.conf .

 

You’ll need to do something like:

 

primary_interface       eth0

 

or whatever interface is the primary. You’ll also want to make a similar change to:

 

/opt/perfsonar_ps/ls_registration_daemon/etc/ls_registration_daemon.conf

 

You can just put it at the top of the file.

 

Cheers,

Aaron

If we have more than one interface (two, in our case) up on pS 3.4 box, what determines which address is reverse-lookuped for the Primary Address. Since we brought up a second interface, unfortunately it usually reports the one we *don’t* want. Wondering if it’s possible to tell it which one to always use.
