perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Andrew Lake <>]

All,

A bugfix release of a few perfSONAR packages is now available. The updates include the following:

- The pcheduler packages were updated to version 1.0.2.3. They contain a fix for a bug that was causing exclusive pscheduler tests to overlap in some situations if a certain race condition was met. 

- The perfsonar-toolkit packages were updated to 4.0.2.2. The perfsonar-tools, perfsonar-testpoint, and perfsonar-core packages were also updated (version 4.0.2.1). These packages were updated to increase the default open file limit in ulimits to 4096 for users that run the perfSONAR services. This should help with hosts that had many OWAMP tests running and were running into issues with too many open files. This change currently only applies to CentOS and not the Debian packages.

- The reverse_traceroute.cgi script provided by SLAC was updated to the latest version of 7.3. 

- The perfsonar-graphs package was updated to use jquery 3.0  to be inline with latest security updates from jquery.

These packages should be available for all supported version of CentOS and Debian. If you have auto-updates enabled, you should get these updates automatically.

Thank you,

The perfSONAR development team
