perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

Hi Johann,

That error usually means it can’t an HTTP archiver, but looks like you have one of those. In /etc/perfsonar/psconfig/grafana-agent.json do you have any of the following:

-  Is "grafana-datasource-create” set to false? That would cause the issue you see below. If it is not set at all then it will default to true and you are fine.

- Are any of the “datasource_selector” settings under the “display” settings set to “manual” instead of "auto”? That could also cause this.

Otherwise at first glance it looks good.

Thanks,

Andy

Hi all

psconfig-grafana-agent do not generate any grafana dashboards from my psconfig file.

psconfig remote list

All the testpoints in the mesh are reading the psconfig file and they are submitting results to opensearch. I can see test results in Grafana

https://perf-dash.sanren.ac.za/grafana

This is the errors I get in psconfig-grafana-agent.log

Is this a password or token related issue? Any ideas/pointers ?

Johann
