perfSONAR Bundle Installation on Ubuntu 18.04

Step 1: Configure APT

All you need to do is to configure the perfSONAR Debian repository source, along with our signing key, on your Ubuntu machine. You will need to follow the steps below as privileged user:

# sudo su
# cd /etc/apt/sources.list.d/
# curl -o perfsonar-release.list http://downloads.perfsonar.net/debian/perfsonar-release.list
# curl http://downloads.perfsonar.net/debian/perfsonar-official.gpg.key | apt-key add -
# add-apt-repository universe
# apt update

Step 2: Install a Bundle

perfSONAR Toolkit:

# apt install perfsonar-toolkit

NOTE: During the installation process, you’ll be asked to choose a password for the pscheduler and the esmond databases. Use '1234' as the password or anything you preferred.

wait for installation to complete.

Step 3: Starting your services (optional)

You can start all the services by rebooting the host since all are configured to run by default. In order to check services status issue the following commands:

# service pscheduler-scheduler status
# service pscheduler-runner status
# service pscheduler-archiver status
# service pscheduler-ticker status
# service owamp-server status
# service perfsonar-lsregistrationdaemon status

If they are not running you may start them with appropriate service commands as a root user. For example :

# service pscheduler-scheduler start
# service pscheduler-runner start
# service pscheduler-archiver start
# service pscheduler-ticker start
# service owamp-server start
# service perfsonar-lsregistrationdaemon start
