perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

["Wiegand, Paul" <>]

Good question; I should have checked myself.  There does seem to be a problem 
retrieving the "activehosts.json" file:

2016/06/28 10:08:16 (29842) ERROR> LookupService.pm:73 
perfSONAR_PS::Utils::LookupService::discover_lookup_services - Problem 
retrieving http://ps1.es.net:8096/lookup/activehosts.json: 500 Timeout

Our ScienceDMZ is heavily locked down by ACLs.  That address pings fine but 
perhaps the port is being blocked.  I will follow up with our CI engineer.  
Did something change with a recent update with respect to this?  I was able 
to configure tests several months ago.

Thanks,
Paul.
