perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Yiwen Huang <>]

Hi,

I am learning how to use perfsonar and don't know where the measurement results are stored.

I used the VMware Fusion and created two hosts both installed the "pS-Toolkit-4.3.4-CentOS7-FullInstall-x86_64-2021Mar17.iso" . The ip addresses of these hosts are 172.16.128.8 and 172.16.128.9. I use the host 172.16.128.8 as my archive host.

On host 172.16.128.8, I used the "psconfig publish two_hosts_local.json" command to publish a remote template. The template is shown below:

And on hosts 172.16.128.9 and 172.16.128.9,  I use the command psconfig remote add "http://172.16.128.8/psconfig/two_hosts_local.json" to read this remote template. As shown below, this template was correctly read by host 172.16.128.9 and the task was running.

On host 172.16.128.8:

On host 172.16.128.9:

However, when I followed the documentation "https://docs.perfsonar.net/esmond_api_rest.html#psclient-rest-basevsumm" and used the command "curl http://172.16.128.8/esmond/perfsonar/archive" to get the measurement result, I got nothing, as shown below:

So, I am wondering is my measurement running correctly? Where is the measurement data stored? How can I get the measurement data?

(BTW, I didn't configure a central measurement archiver as the documhttps://docs.perfsonar.net/multi_ma_clustering.html did).

Thank,

Even.
