perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

["Andrew Lake" <>]

Hi Frank,

As you said i can vary with the number of tests you run and how often you test, etc. On ESnet hosts, our busiest OWAMP hosts (with ~300 tests) have about a year’s worth of data and are sitting around 15GB. The busy BWCTL hosts are < 2GB for the same time range (they run every 6 hours and I think you are looking at about 200 tests). 

Hope that helps,

Andy

Hi all,
someone happens to know what amount of disk space a perfSONAR
measurement archive requires daily for storing data from let's say one
BWCTL test with standard settings (every six hours) and one contentious
OWAMP measurement (with 20 packets/s)? Or is it too difficult to give a
number on this because it's a database with it's own internal structure
and data management? Basically I wonder how much disk space a full-mesh
measurement network would take, so I also take numbers for that one
(include the number of hosts in the measurement network).

Best regards,
Frank
