The Lookup Service testing has been completed. The data collected from the testing has allowed us to discover and fix a couple of potential bugs before rolling the release out to production. 

The LS has now been restored to its original state. Thank you for your cooperation.

The Lookup Service testing has begun.

As mentioned earlier, *no changes* are required to the Toolkits/clients. But, in the next 1-2 hours, you may see a dip in the records as the toolkits/clients are switching to the new instance.

We will be closely monitoring the service for any issues and monitoring the number of hosts registering to the service.

After the testing ends on Jun 3(Wednesday), the lookup service will be automatically reverted back to its original state.

Hi All,

Next week, the perfSONAR Team will be testing the Lookup Service from Jun 1-3 (Mon-Wed). A new instance containing the next release(that replaces backend with Elasticsearch) will be brought online. This testing will help us to identify any unforeseen issues and improve the product before we roll it out in production.

*No changes* are required to the Toolkits/clients. 

We do not expect the service to be impacted. But, you may notice a dip in the number of hosts/interface records (for an hour or two), while the toolkits are switching to the new instance. 

After the testing is completed, the Lookup Service instance will be reverted back to the current production instance. 

An email will be sent right before the testing starts and when the testing has been completed.

Thank you for your co-operation.

Regards,

perfSONAR Team
