perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Casey Russell <>]

Brian,

     Thank you for the reply.  I last generated the .json for the mesh config on March 31, and the results for those hosts still show up in the "Throughput / Latency Graphs" in Perfsonar, and in the "My Sites dashboard" for Maddash. 

     It can wait until he gets back if it needs to, so long as I know it's on the radar.

Sorry for the slow reply.

The tests should disappear from the GUI in 7 days. How long has it been?

Andy is the expert on removing data from esmond, and he is on paternity leave for a couple weeks.

I'll dig around the docs, but we might need to wait for his return.

Group,

     Should I assume from the silence that there is no way to remove these stale hosts? 

     Or that there is no documentation to point me to?  :-)

Group,

     I thought it had been discussed here on list, and so I went back through some old discussions.  If the answer is in here, I'm not finding it.  I've got two nodes we've retired.  I really only used them during our testing phase while we were transitioning from version 3.3.x to 3.4.x  However, now their names and data are in my 3.4.x dashboard even though I ceased testing to them weeks ago. 

     I've removed all mention of them from the meshconfig file (and the generated .json file).  However their lines are still in the dashboard.  And when I re-generate a new maddash .yaml file (using the automated procedure provided by PS), the hosts still appear in the front page "My sites" dashboard. 

     Can anyone point me to documentation on how to properly exorcise a host and it's related data from your Perfsonar environment in the 3.4.x / Esmond world?

Thank you,
