perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Antoine Delvaux <>]

Dear perfSONAR Debian users,

We noticed a few days ago that the automatic update routine described on our 
web site to keep your perfSONAR Debian/Ubuntu hosts up to date needs a manual 
action.

Because of the change in the perl perfSONAR libraries we have introduced in 
3.5.1 the automatic process does not conclude with a complete upgrade.  For 
it to be fulfilled, one must run the following command manually once:

sudo apt-get dist-upgrade

Symptoms of not running this command may result in some perfSONAR services 
unable to start/restart or not working correctly.

Our apologies for this inconvenience.

Kind regards,

The perfSONAR development team.
