Hello Szymon, 

Thank you! This clarifies many things. For me, it was “service  perfsonar-meshconfig-guiagent restart”.

Regards,

Joon

Hi, 

I am on perfsonar 4.0, and MaDDash is 2.0-1.el6.

How do you auto-generate "maddash.yaml" from a “mesh.json” file in this new version? I used to follow the below guideline, but it seems to be out-of-date now:

http://software.es.net/maddash/mesh_config.html

The closest possible script I can find this "/usr/lib/perfsonar/bin/perfsonar_meshconfig_guiagent”, but running that gives me an error: 

$ /usr/lib/perfsonar/bin/perfsonar_meshconfig_guiagent 

Error: no configuration file specified

Thanks,

Joon

Hi Joon,

It changed in 4.0. It is now a daemon that periodically retrieves changes. It checks the remote JSON every hour and should update within 60 seconds if a change to the /etc/perfsonar/meshconfig-guiagent.conf file is made. 

If you want to force an update run run “systemctl restart perfsonar-meshconfig-guiagent”

And the right place for proper documentation will be perfSONAR pages:
http://docs.perfsonar.net/multi_mesh_agent_config.html
