perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Chad Kotil <>]

Hi Datla,
You are on the right track.
Here is the recipe we use:

install the I2 repo,
http://software.internet2.edu/rpms/el6/x86_64/RPMS.main/Internet2-repo-0.4-2.noarch.rpm

Install these packages:

perfSONAR_PS-Bundles-Level2 (This contains and depends on the bulk of
the toolkit)
perl-perfSONAR_PS-perfSONARBUOY-server
perl-perfSONAR_PS-Toolkit
perl-perfSONAR_PS-perfAdmin
perl-perfSONAR_PS-Toolkit-SystemEnvironment
mysql-server
ndt-server
ndt


Install web 100 kernel. I didn't find an RPM to add the repo, so here's
the definition:
/etc/yum.repos.d/Internet2-Web100.repo

[Internet2-web100]
name=Internet2 web100 Packages - $basearch
baseurl=http://software.internet2.edu/web100_kernel/rpms/el6/x86_64/main
failovermethod=priority
enabled=1
gpgcheck=1
gpgkey=file:///etc/pki/rpm-gpg/RPM-GPG-KEY-Internet2

Edit the configs in /opt/perfsonar_ps/toolkit/etc/enabled_services and
start the desired services. Make sure to set the following to enabled or
sshd won't start on boot:
ssh_enabled=enabled

Edit /opt/perfsonar_ps/toolkit/etc/firewall.conf to remove the default
SSH allow iptables rule

Other things you might want to enable/disable:
/sbin/chkconfig --del fail2ban
/sbin/chkconfig mysqld on
/sbin/chkconfig --del generate_motd
