perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Daniel Doyle <>]

Hi Dan,

Sorry for the troubles. A few general debugging questions -

1 - when you run it off the command line, are you running it with the same parameters as when the regular test runs it? You may run it successfully with the defaults but it may be hitting a limit with a specific duration, bandwidth, etc option. If so there may be “errors” when you view the test results in the webpage, red dots along the top.

2 - do the contents of your /etc/perfsonar/regulartesting.conf look correct, ie do you see the test you expect? Is this host part of a mesh that is generating the regulartesting.conf?

3 - is regular testing and bwctld running? a `ps aux | grep Regular` should show you a few things running. If not, are you able to start it via `service perfsonar-regulartesting restart`?

Hi all,

 

One of my throughput tests has stopped showing results on the graph on the web interface. I have been running this throughput test successfully for about 6 days, but results stopped around noon on Sunday, August 21^st. I’m not sure what is wrong, as the regular testing log shows no errors with this specific test or IP address. When running the ‘bwctl’ tool on the command line to the same IP, it comes back with results. Is there anything that I need to do in order to get the results to start being graphed again? My perfsonar toolkit is running on RHEL 6.8 on an HP server with 8GB of RAM.

 

Thanks for the help,
