perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

["Garnizov, Ivan (RRZE)" <>]

Hi George,

In fact the problem is more complex. These updates to the FW config come with 
the perfsonar-toolkit bundle on updates.
This is the bundle that delivers the GUI interface. I have not been able to 
find a solution around it, so I have an automation through Puppet, that goes 
after the perfSONAR upgrade and reverts the changes.

It would be interesting to know what percentage of the  perfSONAR user 
community needs to see progress/solution in this direction (detach the GUI 
from the dependencies of having automated system reconfiguration with each 
upgrade), so that a change is considered.

I am opened to all point of views.

Best regards,
Ivan Garnizov (personal opinion)

Hi George,

Is there a particular reason you don't want to simply disable updates in 
the toolkit (although it's not recommended)?
