perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

Hi John,

Try running “yum reinstall pscheduler-server”. A couple others have reported a similar issue and that fixed it. Because of some limitations of what the packages are allowed to do during the ISO install phase there are a few setup things we have to do on first boot. We think what’s happening is they are not completing all the way if networking is not all the way up yet. We are working on building and testing a new ISO that fixes this, but running “yum reinstall pscheduler-server” should get you where you need to be.

Thanks,

Andy

Hi Experts!

 

I’m a perfsonar newbie and installed the pS-Toolkit-4.0-CentOS7-FullInstall-x86_64-2017Apr17.iso on an ESXi VM behind a lab firewall and cannot get the pscheduler archiver to run.

 

/var/log/pscheduler/pscheduler.log constantly restarts with the below error “OperationalError: FATAL:  role "pscheduler" does not exist”.  More detail log below.

 

The follow updates to the CentOS7 were done to handle firewall issues:

 

1)      /etc/profile.d/proxy.sh                 !!! set http_proxy/https_proxy to allow “only” http/https traffic on ports 80/443 to go thru firewall

2)      /etc/resolv.conf                                               !!! updated for DNS servers

3)      /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0  !!! updated for static IP, Gateway

4)      /etc/ntp.conf                                    !!! updated to use a lab NTP server (ntp is correctly working)

 

 

Running the same ISO using a laptop VMware Player VM on a corporate network that does not have a strict firewall policy initially had similar failures, but manually running “systemctl start pscheduler-archiver” restarted the archiver successfully and everything started to work. When a perfsonar VM runs in our lab network behind the stricter FW, the above error always occurs and archiver never starts, even after issue the “systemctl restart  pscheduler-archiver” several times

 

Any help is appreciated!

 

 

Here’s the detailed pscheduler.log with “pscheduler debug on”.

I did follow the Trouble Shooting link without any luck : http://docs.perfsonar.net/troubleshooting_overview.html
