perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Justin Ettore <>]

Thanks Andrew,  That worked.  Any concern with the output in Red below.  Also can I set a secondary interface for services?

ettorej@perf-brb etc]$ sudo /etc/init.d/ls_registration_daemon start

/opt/perfsonar_ps/ls_registration_daemon/bin/daemon.pl --config=/opt/perfsonar_ps/ls_registration_daemon/etc/ls_registration_daemon.conf --pidfile=/var/run/ls_registration_daemon.pid --logger=/opt/perfsonar_ps/ls_registration_daemon/etc/ls_registration_daemon-logger.conf --user=perfsonar --group=perfsonar

Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string at /opt/perfsonar_ps/ls_registration_daemon/bin/../lib/perfSONAR_PS/LSRegistrationDaemon/Host.pm line 334.

/etc/init.d/ls_registration_daemon start: LS Registration Daemon started

Hi Justin,

Sorry for the delay. I believe all you need to do is uncomment "autodiscover_addresses 1" and change "primary_address p1p1" to "primary_interface p1p1". That will tell it to automatically discover the addresses on interface p1p1. Below is what this would look like:

country   US

external_address_if_name p1p1

    <local_latency_service>

       autodiscover_addresses   1

        primary_interface         p1p1

    </local_latency_service>

    <local_bandwidth_service>

        autodiscover_addresses   1

        primary_interface         p1p1

    </local_bandwidth_service>

    <local_web_service>

        primary_interface         p1p1

I’m thinking it’s related to changes in ls_registration_daemon.conf.  Im trying to not use interface em1 for anything except host management.
