3 Initial Setup

3.1 Starting the OML Server (if needed)

For this tutorial we have an OML server running on emmy9.casa.umass.edu, which collects the measurement data in an sqlite3 database and at the end of the experiment it pushes the data to IRODS.

  • Here is how you would have to start an OML server if you wanted to run this on a different machine (OML2.8 is required.) DO NOT perform this task in the tutorial.

This is explained the [OML installation file]. 

$ /usr/bin/oml2-server -l 3003 --logfile=/var/log/oml2-server-2.9.log --user=oml2 --group=oml2 -H /usr/share/oml2-server/oml2-server-hook.sh

The latest version of OML offers the capability of executing a script after the measurement has finished. In OML terminology this is called a "hook". The hook script we use is attached at the bottom of this wiki page ​(oml2-server-hook.sh). 

#!/bin/bash
#
# Example event hook for the OML server, copying an Sqlite database elsewhere
# when the last client has exited.

At the ​following page we give the interested experimenter additional information on how they can run their own OML server independent of the one offered by GIMI.

3.2 Verification of Topology

After establishing the slice on which the experiment will be executed, the experimenter will be most likely be interested in verifying if the slice has been initiated correctly. In this tutorial, we use an ​http://emmy9.casa.umass.edu/GEC15-GIMI-Tutorial/step1-ping_all.rb OMF experiment script that executes pings between neighboring nodes.
The following figure shows that a total of 12 (between each pair of nodes and in each direction) ping are performed.

The script is executed from the user workspace as follows: 

$ cd ~/Tutorials/GIMI/common/
$ omf-5.4 exec --no-am -e gimiXX-ping_all -S gimiXX step1-ping_all.rb

Where gimiXX has to be replaced by the slice name you are using for your experiment.

You should see the following output after executing the omf command.

3.3 Setup Routing in Experiment Topology

In more complex topologies routing has to be set up. In our case, this is achieved with the aid of an ​http://emmy9.casa.umass.edu/GEC15-GIMI-Tutorial/step2-routing.rb OMF experiment script. The one we use for this tutorial is shown below. 

defGroup('Node1', "nodeA")
defGroup('Node2', "nodeB")
defGroup('Node3', "nodeC")
defGroup('Node4', "nodeD")
defGroup('Node5', "nodeE")


onEvent(:ALL_UP) do |event|
  wait 1
  info 'Changing routing setup'

  group('Node1').exec("route add -net 192.168.1.0/24 gw 192.168.4.10")
  group('Node1').exec("route add -net 192.168.2.0/24 gw 192.168.4.10")
  group('Node1').exec("route add -net 192.168.3.0/24 gw 192.168.5.12")
  group('Node1').exec("route add -net 192.168.6.0/24 gw 192.168.5.12")
  group('Node1').exec("echo 1 >  /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward")

  group('Node2').exec("route add -net 192.168.3.0/24 gw 192.168.1.13")
  group('Node2').exec("route add -net 192.168.5.0/24 gw 192.168.4.11")
  group('Node2').exec("route add -net 192.168.6.0/24 gw 192.168.2.12")
  group('Node2').exec("echo 1 >  /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward")

  group('Node3').exec("route add -net 192.168.1.0/24 gw 192.168.3.13")
  group('Node3').exec("route add -net 192.168.4.0/24 gw 192.168.5.11")
  group('Node3').exec("echo 1 >  /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward")

  group('Node4').exec("route add -net 192.168.2.0/24 gw 192.168.3.12")
  group('Node4').exec("route add -net 192.168.4.0/24 gw 192.168.1.10")
  group('Node4').exec("route add -net 192.168.5.0/24 gw 192.168.3.12")
  group('Node4').exec("route add -net 192.168.6.0/24 gw 192.168.3.12")
  group('Node4').exec("echo 1 >  /proc/sys/net/ipv4/ip_forward")

  group('Node5').exec("route add -net 192.168.2.0/24 gw 192.168.6.12")
  group('Node5').exec("route add -net 192.168.1.0/24 gw 192.168.6.12")
  group('Node5').exec("route add -net 192.168.3.0/24 gw 192.168.6.12")
  group('Node5').exec("route add -net 192.168.4.0/24 gw 192.168.6.12")
  group('Node5').exec("route add -net 192.168.5.0/24 gw 192.168.6.12")

  info 'Routing setup finished'
  wait 5
  info 'Stopping applications'
  allGroups.stopApplications
  wait 1
  Experiment.done
end

This script can be easily adapted if the experimenter wishes to set up the routing between the nodes differently.

The script is executed from the user workspace as follows: 

$ cd ~/Tutorials/GIMI/common/
$ omf-5.4 exec --no-am -e gimiXX-routing -S gimiXX step2-routing.rb

Where gimiXX has to be replaced by the slice name you are using for your experiment.

You should see the following output after executing the omf command.

The script is executed from the user workspace as follows: 

$ cd ~/Tutorials/GIMI/common/
$ omf-5.4 exec --no-am -e gimiXX-ping_e2e -S gimiXX step3-ping_e2e.rb

Where gimiXX has to be replaced by the slice name you are using for your experiment.

You should see the following output after executing the omf command.

4 Running Actual Experiment

We will use an ​http://emmy9.casa.umass.edu/GEC15-GIMI-Tutorial/step4-otg_nmetrics.rb OMF experiment script to execute oml enabled traffic generator and receiver (otg and otr) to simulate network traffic, and use oml enabled nmetrics to measure the system usage (e.g., CUP, memory) and network interface usage on each of the participated ExoGENI nodes.

The one we use for this tutorial is shown below.

5 LabWiki

Labwiki is a tool which provides a user-friendly interface to visualize your experiment. To know more about LabWiki please visit ​LabWiki
Labwiki can be used to Plan, Prepare and Run your Experiment.

5.1 Plan

Labwiki accounts have already been created for you for this tutorial. To use Labwiki, go to ​GIMI portal and login with the username and password you have been given.

Figure (1)

After you have successfully been signed in you will be able to see a screen like the one below.

No image "Labwiki_2a.png" attached to GEC17Agenda/GettingStartedWithGENI_III_GIMI/Procedure/Execute

Figure (2)

The left column could contain the steps to run the experiment or general information about the experiment.

Figure (3)

5.2 Prepare

In the Prepare column, you can select the experiment that you want to execute. In this column you will also be able to edit your experiment script.

No image "Labwiki_3.png" attached to GEC17Agenda/GettingStartedWithGENI_III_GIMI/Procedure/Execute

Figure (4)

After editing, click on the save icon at the top of the column to save your script.
Next, click and drag the icon at the top left corner over to the right column Execute.

5.3 Execute

Here, you can start your experiment and Visualise it. In the name tab, type in the name you wish to give the experiment. There are no particular rules for this.

Under slice name, type in the name of your slice as you have entered in the Flukes tool while setting up your slice.
Then. scroll towards the bottom of this column and under the tab named Graph, type 'true'.This enables the graph view on your execute column.
Once the experiment starts running you will be able to scroll down and view the graph.

Figure(5)

Click on 'Start Experiment' at the bottom of the screen.

Figure(6)

After a couple of seconds, you can see the graph at the bottom of the screen.

No image "Labwiki_6.png" attached to GEC17Agenda/GettingStartedWithGENI_III_GIMI/Procedure/Execute

Figure (7)

You can click and drag it to the Plan screen just above Figure 12. This will display the graph along with the experiment description. This graph is also dynamic.

No image "Labwiki_7.png" attached to GEC17Agenda/GettingStartedWithGENI_III_GIMI/Procedure/Execute

Figure (8)

You can click and drag the experiment description to the Prepare column. This allows you to add any comments or details about the experiment results.
Similarly, Experiments 2 and 3 can be run using the same procedure. Experiment 2 does not have a graph.

Once you have your slice up and running you can visualize any experiment using LabWiki.
