perfSONAR User Q&A and Other Discussion

["Yamamoto, Miguel" <>]

Hi Andrew,

Thanks for the examples. However, when I did the change, it still shows the same TCP rather than UDP for both graphs.

Also, is there a way to change the graph to show a set name defined in the pSConfig template rather than IP?

    "addresses": {

        "Example": {

            "_meta": {

                "display-name": "Example Name",   - This is what I want to display in the graph

                "display-url": "Example Website"

            },

            "address": "{IP}" - This is the one showing on the graphs

        },

Thanks for all the help!

Hi, I think you need to add a display-name for those tasks and they will show-up. See example here https: //github. com/perfsonar/psconfig/blob/ce4a4807f6579044502af946ff5cb2e3d0042323/psconfig/perfsonar-psconfig/doc/skeleton. json#L94-L97. A discussion

Hi,

 

I think you need to add a display-name for those tasks and they will show-up. See example here https://github.com/perfsonar/psconfig/blob/ce4a4807f6579044502af946ff5cb2e3d0042323/psconfig/perfsonar-psconfig/doc/skeleton.json#L94-L97. A discussion of what those fields mean can be found here: https://docs.perfsonar.net/psconfig_grafana_agent.html#organizing-grids-and-dashboards

 

Grafana uses the display-task-name to filter the results that appear in the grid, so once that gets set it should be all set.

 

Thanks,

Andy

Hi,

 

Hoping to get guidance on showing throughput UDP in the perfSonar grid. When the template gets applied, there will be two grids showing, but the same TCP Throughput with titles "throughput_task" and "throughput_task_udp". Is there something in the grafana-agent.conf I need to set to show the UDP? Something like "udp: true"?  or something in the pSConfig needs to be set?

 

Thanks,
Miguel

The grafana-agent.conf:

 

    "throughput_avg": {

      "task_selector": {

        "test_types": [

          "throughput"

        ]

      },

      "datasource_selector": "auto",

      "stat_field": "result.throughput",

      "stat_type": "avg",

      "value_field": "Average",

      "value_text": "Throughput",

      "unit": "bps",

      "matrix_url_var1": "source",

      "matrix_url_var2": "dest",

    },

 

Two task/test created for the pSConfig Template :

"throughput_task":

{

"group": "throughput_group",

"test": "throughput_test",

"archives": ["central_archive"],

"schedule": "every_4_hours"

"tools": ["iperf3"]

}

"throughput_task_udp":

{

"group": "throughput_group_udp",

"test": "throughput_udp_test",

“archives": ["central_archive"],

"schedule": "every_4_hours"

"tools": ["iperf3"]

}

 

"throughput_test":

{

"spec":

 {

  "source": "{% address[0] %}",

  "dest": "{% address[1] %}",

  "duration": "PT30S",

},

"type": "throughput"

}                   

"throughput_udp_test":

{

  "spec":

  {

  "source": "{% address[0] %}",

 "dest": "{% address[1] %}",

  "duration": "PT30S",

  "ip-version": 4,

  "udp": true,

  },

  "type": "throughput"

}
