Adding extra hosts to be monitored

The way to add extra hosts that the  MA would make measurements to is to modify the /usr/local/share/pinger/pinger.xml file.

The file is organized with <BeaconList> which are sites uploaded from SLAC on a weekly basis. Further on down in the pinger.xml file is a section:

<HostList>

</HostList>

Currently it is empty at Daffodil.  You need to add the special hosts that will be monitored by by the MA but not the rest of the PingER MAs.  Thus for example if you just added www.myren.net.my the HostList might look like:

<HostList>

<HostList>

<Host>

<IP>203.80.16.120</IP>

<Name>www.myren.net.my</Name>

</Host>

</HostList>
