     21 * Defined ExoGENI rack architecture in consultations with GPO
     22 * Developed [wiki:ORCA-BEN-GEC13-SR additional ORCA software] to run on the defined architecture stack (!OpenStack for compute substrate control and !OpenFlow for VLAN slicing [pending availability of hybrid mode from the vendor])
     23 * Deployed ORCA on the racks and in global infrastructure, as well as the associated tools (e.g. updated NDL-OWL/RSpec converter) to support the project
     24  * Deployed Nagios installation to support ExoGENI monitoring needs. Nagios has been customized to support the specific ExoGENI software stack with code being reported back to Nagios community.
