Hi,


In the past I could install the perfsonar tools on my laptop and use bwctl to run throughput tests from my laptop to points of interest on and off campus.


I can still install the tools bundle on my laptop with `sudo apt-get install perfsonar-tools` but with the switch away from bwctl to pscheduler it appears I can just run my tests.  I get an error when I try the simple example:


jpr@laptop:~$ pscheduler task rtt --dest www.perfsonar.net
Unable to find pScheduler on localhost

It seems I can't start any tests with out a pscheduler server or assist server:


https://docs.perfsonar.net/pscheduler_client_tasks.html#running-tests-from-other-hosts


The server comes in the testpoint bundle and has a lot of dependencies like apache.  It looks like the --assist flag could help, but I don't know of an assist server.


Is there a way to run pscheduler test on a trim client-only install like bwctl could?


Thanks,


John-Paul
