How can I add legacy esmond support for a Testpoint 5.1.4 docker container ?

 

The esmond archiver is still available but isn’t shipped with the container because we no longer support Esmond.

 

You can build a container from ours that adds it with a Dockerfile along these lines:

 

FROM perfsonar/testpoint:systemd

RUN apt-get update && apt-get -y install pscheduler-archiver-esmond
