    4646
    47 Login using SSH to '''each of the servers''', and install the following packages which might not have come pre-installed on a Fedora Core 8 (default OS for !PlanetLab)
     47Download the latest OnTimeMeasure release package at http://ontime.oar.net/download/OnTimeMeasure_latest.php.
    4848
    49 '''Note:''' In order to install any software using yum, use --nogpgcheck, otherwise installation will fail on !PlanetLab nodes.
     49Once you have downloaded the tar file, untar/unzip to see that it contains:
    5050
    51 Install make and gcc
    52 {{{
    53 yum --nogpgcheck install make
    54 yum --nogpgcheck install gcc
    55 }}}
     51    * NodeBeacon.tar.gz
     52    * RootBeacon.tar.gz
     53    * README.txt
     54
     55Next, login using SSH to each of the servers, copy the appropriate tar files over, and run the following commands to install the measurement service:

    67 Edit “ontime_software_install.sh” and add --nogpgcheck in all occurrences of “yum install” statements. Your yum install statements should look like this:[[BR]]

    72 
    73 If some perl module fails to install, force install the module using CPAN, otherwise you may receive errors while trying to run file_server.pl and node_scheduler.pl later.

    187140}}}
    188 No error should be reported. If you see errors while trying to run any of the scripts, it is likely that the depend perl modules are not installed correctly. A good way to check if the above scripts work is to run them without nohup to see the output and after making sure they work correctly, the scripts can be stopped and re-run using nohup. In case, an error occurs, you can install the missing modules (module name will appear in the error message) using procedure explained in the beginning.
