perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Bill Owens <>]

Bruce,

Do the tests work if you put an IPv4 numeric address in the host box, instead 
of the name? I’ve run into what appears to be an issue with hosts that have 
both A and AAAA records, even if they’re only selected for IPv4.

Bill.

    We have two perfsonar boxes and after the automatic upgrade to 4.0 some 
graphs stopped updating.
    
    It looks like the common variable for the graphs that do not update is 
that perfsonar lists the IPv6 address under the host name.
    
    I verified that I can run the throughput tests manually over IPv6 with 
the pscheduler command.
    
    I do see lots of these error messages but haven’t verified that they are 
related to the problem.

      These are our two hosts that exhibit the problem.

     Deleting the tests and adding them back with IPv4 set does not seem to 
result in working graphs either.
    
    
    I also noticed the same problem on ps-border1-pt.lbl.gov to sites 
nersc-pt1-v6.es.net and bost-pt1-v6.es.net  and sent email to the admin there 
and received a reply that they will add it to their list of issues to look 
into.
