perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Juan Castillo <>]

Robert,

 

I tried doing yum reinstall perfsonar-*  and it did not help me. I messed up the python27-mod_wsgi trying to apply a security update.

 

I bit the bullet and flattened my server and started over  with a netinstall. I did not have any saved data or test to worry about.

I was thinking about doing a re-install on one of my nodes that I can't get the regular testing working on as well.  Do I need to purge the existing install, or can I just run the yum install perfsonar-toolkit over the existing install?

Hi Juan,

 

You can install the entire toolkit using yum. Here are the instructions to do so: http://docs.perfsonar.net/install_options.html

 

Or, if you want to do a complete reinstall (including the OS) then go for the Toolkit ISO option.

 

Thanks,

Sowmya

And it seemed to break the test results, Cassandra , etc.

 

I tried reinstalling Python and cannot get it to work.

 

 

Would it be easier to reinstall the whole Toolkit from YUM ?

 

 

Thanks,
