Planned changes to "measurement archive"
by Robert Kisteleki 12 Nov '20

12 Nov '20

Dear RIPE Atlas users, You may be aware that we publish "measurement metadata dumps" on "FTP" (https://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/atlas/measurements/) every week. These are meant to make the complete measurement metadata downloadable for those who are interested. Even though there is still a point in publishing our metadata in a downloadable format, the current method is not sustainable: as it is defined it'll grow forever - which is not realistic. Currently *every* dump contains *all* the measurements we *ever* had in the system. We plan to change that to "everything that's running now + everything that was running in the last two weeks". This has about 200k items currently. If we published this every day instead of once a week, we will still only produce 10% of the output we do today - by virtue of eliminating 90% of redundancy and repeated work. The syntax and semantics of the content will not change. We will keep the existing dumps as they are mostly because there's no reason to remove them. What this means for users is: * if you care about "current / recent" measurements, you can just use the last dump from yesterday * if you really need all (or a large part of) history, you can fetch one dump per 2 weeks or so and combine them * you can still use the API for random, finite searches We plan to implement the above change just after RIPE 81 (i.e. early November). Please be aware of this change if you rely on these dumps. Regards, Robert

RIPE Atlas UI change
by Robert Kisteleki 11 Nov '20

11 Nov '20

Dear All, We will work on releasing the new, significantly changed UI for RIPE Atlas next week Tuesday (10 November) in the early morning hours. The UI may be unavailable for a short time, and during this work your browser may show inconsistent or strange looking pages - where you may have to reload the page(s) (a few times). Please bear with us while this facelift happens. Regards, Robert Kisteleki RIPE NCC

Meta-information dumps for built-in measurements?
by Vasileios Giotsas 09 Nov '20

09 Nov '20

Is there any repository like https://ftp.ripe.net/ripe/atlas/measurements/ that contains meta-information about built-in RIPE Atlas measurements (the above repository contains meta-information only for public measurements)? I couldn't find anything similar in the new FTP repository at https://data-store.ripe.net/datasets/atlas-daily-dumps/ I guess using the API is an alternative but it would be more convenient to have such dumps Thanks, Vasileios

05 Nov '20

Dear all, RIPE Atlas turns 10 years old this month! We're excited to share two events to mark this occasion, and we invite you to join us for them: * RIPE Atlas Open House session (18 November): This is a 90 minute long virtual session in which we will celebrate 10 years of RIPE Atlas by sharing use cases, updates and having an open discussion about everything Atlas. https://www.ripe.net/participate/meetings/open-house/ripe-ncc-open-house-10… * Virtual RIPE Atlas Software Probe Deployathon (25 November): Deploying software probes is even more fun if we get together for it! We're aiming to get software probes deployed with mentors and participants logging in from around the world. https://labs.ripe.net/Members/becha/lets-deploy-together-ripe-atlas-softwar… Both these events are free and open to all, but please make sure to register as soon as possible. We’d be delighted if you could spread the word and invite your local communities too! Kind regards, RIPE Atlas team

Re: [atlas] measurements not starting
by Viktor Naumov 29 Oct '20

Sorry, my bad. I didn't rub my eyes enough. Indeed the reason is different. What I can see from the logs is that the scheduler couldn't find any probe in AS4771 that would be capable of doing v6 measurement. wbr /vty On 10/29/20 8:35 AM, Povl Ole Haarlev Olsen wrote: > On Thu, 29 Oct 2020, Viktor Naumov wrote: >> The times shown on the page are in UTC.

Result processing glitch
by Robert Kisteleki 12 Oct '20

12 Oct '20

Dear RIPE Atlas users, Today one of our controllers (a component that handles probes and deals with their submitted results) was updated to run a new version of result processing code. Unfortunately this code had a bug that caused results to be mixed up. As a result, some of the results that were delivered by this controller were of the wrong type / syntax, which may result in errors in processing this data. We reverted this change as soon as we detected the error. This issue likely affected results delivered by about 2% of our probes, between 13:30 and 15:15 (CEST). We apologise for the inconvenience. Regards, Robert Kisteleki RIPE NCC
