perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Michael Johnson <>]

Hi Michael,

I'm not aware of anyone running a full Toolkit on OS X. Depending on what 
you're trying to do, you could try the beta perfSONAR Testpoint Docker 
container:

https://hub.docker.com/r/perfsonar/testpoint/

This is not fully supported yet, but you can give it a shot. Note that this 
is not the full toolkit, only the testing tools (pscheduler, iperf, owamp, 
etc). You don't get the GUI for configuration, or the graphs, or the system 
tuning stuff the full Tookit gives you.

If you really want to run the full Toolkit, I've run it in a VM using 
Virtualbox, but running in a VM won't give you ideal results.

Can you provide more details about what you are trying to accomplish?

Thanks,
Michael
