perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Alan Whinery <>]

I replaced test IDs below with ellipses to control the line-wrap. perfSONAR docs for pS 4.1.6 have this page: https://docs.perfsonar.net/pscheduler_client_schedule.html
Which suggests that to pause a test, one needs to run a command like:
pscheduler pause https://203.0.113.136/pscheduler/tasks/(...)
But when I run that, I get an error message:
https://203.0.113.136/pscheduler/tasks/(...): Invalid ISO duration Suggesting that an ISO 8601 duration is expected (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_8601#Durations )
When one runs
pscheduler pause --help Usage: pause [ --query | duration ]
Options:  -h, --help         show this help message and exit  -d DSN, --dsn=DSN  Database connection string, prefix with @ to read from                     file  -q, --query        Query if runs are paused  -v, --verbose      Print messages even if stdout is not a tty
Examples:
 pause      Pause indefinitely
 pause PT2H      Pause for two hours
 pause --query    Determine if the system is paused, exiting 0 if it is or 1 if    not, displaying a message if the standard output is a TTY.
There isn't any per-URL syntax.
I'm actually happier with the full-system pause, but I wanted to point out what may be incorrect in the on-line docs...
