perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[pete <>]

Hey Antoine, I did not notice any errors during install.  I have 
installed the perfsonar-centralmanagement bundle several different 
times, but I've never had cassandra running.

Have you ever tried installing the debian perfsonar-centralmanagement 
bundle and seen it run?

I've followed the docs and tried several ways of doing this.  The only 
way things seem to work as described is when the toolkit is installed.

Thanks!

Pete
