Ibrahim Abaker  is planning to work on topic initially entitled " leveraging pingER big data with a modified pingtable for event-correlation and clustering", The purpose of this project is to make Pinger more efficient and more scalable to retrieve and analysis pingER raw data. consequently may improve pinger data store. He is planning to use key-value store model with high expandability and shorter query response time. The benefit of such project will help in the design of real time analysis and distributed pinger data across multiple servers for analysis. Les has sent him a pointer to documentation on the data flow at SLAC and also listings of pingtable.pl and associated script.

The Raspberry Pi is at the data centre, but due to miscommunication, the public ip which was previously assigned to the rasp pi unit has been assigned to another server. So now  Johari has to wait for the ip to be reassigned back to rasp pi unit and give new ip to the other server. They suggested a new ip for the rasp pi unit but Johari wanted to have the old one so that  we do not have to update the record at slac for the archival process, etc

The tool to enable synchronizing Malaysian monitors is completed. It provides the ability to add, edit and delete nodes. Johari has sent  the URL, userid and password to Badrul, Saqib and Les to try it out. Les has forwarded the information to Raja so he can Raja has tested and after a mod was made to replace a private IP address it is working well. Badrul and Saqib need to try it out.

The traceroute server at http://pinger2.unimas.my/cgi-bin/traceroute.pl  has the same problem as before. They know (sort of) the problem but haven't got the chance to rectify it (mapping NAT address, needs to be added). There is no progress 12/4/2013, 1/8/2013, 1.22.2014, 2/5/2014. Now that the historical traceroutes are working for UM (see below) there is an extra incentive to get the reverse traceroute working at UTM and UNIMAS

Custom iso: He can get as far as the boot screen, but is unable to get to the desktop. No progress 2/5/2014. Joharis has received the replacement Raspberry Pi. He has installed a 64GB card. Once it is setup he will return it to the computer center and see how it goes. No progress 2/5/2014.

Johari has created a shell script to automate the installation of pinger package in Ubuntu/Linux distro and has added Centos 6.2 and earlier versions as well. Next he will test on Fedora 19 and 20. He is using SLAC repo version 2.3 with a virtual box and ubuntu server 13.04 for testing purpose. Johari has added a page at pinger.unimas.my/pinger website on the usage of a shell script to automate the installation steps for pinger package. It is available at  http://pinger.unimas.my/pinger/install-tutorial.php. Johari will check with Kashif to see the version(s) needed for Pakistan to ensure it works  for them. Then Kashif can try it out.
