perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Antoine Delvaux <>]

Hi,

When no results are shown on the public toolkit page, it means that the toolkit-gui cannot find any results in the local MA (esmond).  This could be because the local esmond instance is not running or is unreachable or it could be because the local regulartesting-daemon instance is not storing results locally.

Comparing http://ps-ksu-bw.perfsonar.kanren.net/esmond/perfsonar/archive/ and http://ps-fhsu-bw.perfsonar.kanren.net/esmond/perfsonar/archive/ it looks like the second host is not posting data to the local MA (the latest updates are nearly a year ago).

You should check that your regulartesting.conf has a properly defined local <measurement_archive> section pointing to localhost, with a perfsonar username and the corresponding password.  To find the password to the local MA, you can use the same instructions that what is described for the central MA at http://docs.perfsonar.net/previous_releases/3.5.1/multi_ma_install.html

Hope this helps,

Antoine.

Are we still allowed to ask questions that don't relate to the 4.0 upgrade process?  seems like it's been a while :-)

Group,

I have 4 hosts in my mesh that have been around for years, and 4 that were clean installed maybe 18 months ago from the full ISO.  All of my testing hosts are still running 3.5.1 (at least for another week or so).  

The hosts that have been around for years (and were upgraded from earlier versions of PS) show all of their test results on their individual toolkit pages (referred to as the public dashboard).  The newer hosts do not.  

They are all part of the same mesh config and none of the hosts have had manual tests configured on them (that I can recall).  Does anyone know what triggers that display (or failure to display) the local test results on the public toolkit page, and how I tell my 4 newer hosts to show them?

It's not mission critical, since our Maddash installation captures and displays all the results from the mesh (stored in the central MA)
