perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

[Andrew Lake <>]

Hi,

The perfsonar-repo RPM always points at the “latest” directory. If you want to point at a specific version of perfSONAR you need to update the /etc/yum.repos.d/perfSONAR.repo file by hand to point at the desired version. There is no previous version of the perfsonar-repo RPM since they all point at the “latest” directory. The various perfSONAR versions can be found here: https://software.internet2.edu/rpms/el7/x86_64/. Instead of https://software.internet2.edu/rpms/el7/x86_64/latest replace “/latest” with your desired version e.g. https://software.internet2.edu/rpms/el7/x86_64/5.0.2 

Hope that helps,

Andy

Hi All,

A general Enterprise Linux bundle query. According to the currently published version of the online docs, in order to install a perfSONAR `5.0.3` bundle we must note that `5.0.3` corresponds to version `0.11.1` of this RPM (using `el7` as an arbitrary example):

```text

http://software.internet2.edu/rpms/el7/x86_64/latest/packages/perfsonar-repo-0.11-1.noarch.rpm

```

After installing the RPM above, we can search for available packages and receive the expected `5.0.3` results.

```shell

[root@4e618e7e63c4 /]# yum list perfsonar* --showduplicates

Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, ovl

...    

Installed Packages

perfsonar-repo.noarch                                           0.11-1                         @/perfsonar-repo-0.11-1.noarch

Available Packages

perfsonar-archive.noarch                                        5.0.3-1.el7                    perfSONAR                    

perfsonar-archive.noarch                                        5.0.3-1.el7                    perfSONAR                    

perfsonar-common.noarch                                     5.0.3-1.el7                    perfSONAR

...

```

Is there instead a YUM/DNF repository containing all versions of the various bundles and RPMS?

E.g.

```shell

[root@4e618e7e63c4 /]# yum list perfsonar-* --showduplicates

Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, ovl

...    

Installed Packages

...

Available Packages

perfsonar-archive.noarch                                        5.0.1-1.el7                    perfSONAR                    

perfsonar-archive.noarch                                        5.0.2-1.el7                    perfSONAR                    

perfsonar-archive.noarch                                        5.0.3-1.el7                    perfSONAR

perfsonar-common.noarch                                     5.0.1-1.el7                    perfSONAR

perfsonar-common.noarch                                     5.0.2-1.el7                    perfSONAR

perfsonar-common.noarch                                     5.0.3-1.el7                    perfSONAR

...

```
