Hello GENI index Hello GENI index Hello GENI index

<The following is all done on a MAC Book>

STEPS FOR SETTING UP

Using Omni:
0. Get account: (Ignore this if u already have one)
Go to ​https://www.pgeni.gpolab.bbn.com/reqaccount.php3 for emulab account and to join a GENI project.
Apparently you need to join a GENI project (which is created by PIs/GPOs/others who have permission to do so) in order to use GENI resources.

1. Prepare Omni, follow instructions here: ​http://trac.gpolab.bbn.com/gcf/wiki/GettingGcf
A small hint: make sure u have installed xcode before hand, if u are using MAC.
An even better hint: use App store to install xcode, much faster :-)

Note: while compiling M2Crypto using "pip install M2Crypto", there are a lot of warnings, ignore them.
Note: you need to change the first line of omni-configure.py to "#!/usr/local/bin/python" to make omni config work.

2. Use Omni to create the topology:
Download the RSPEC from ​http://www.cs.purdue.edu/homes/fahmy/geni/geni-tcp_exp.tar.gz
Then do the following:

Create slice: 

omni.py createslice shufengTCP

Output should be something like the following: 

INFO:omni:Loading config file /Users/shuang/.gcf/omni_config
INFO:omni:Using control framework portal
INFO:omni:Created slice with Name shufengTCP, URN urn:publicid:IDN+panther:ShufengProject+slice+shufengTCP, Expiration 2013-05-08 21:17:05

INFO:omni: ============================================================

Renew Slice: 

omni.py renewslice shufengTCP 20130509

Output:

INFO:omni: ============================================================

Note: When dealing with specific slivers, we need to add "-a pg-utah" to specify which aggregate manager we want to use (i.e., from where we want to reserve the resources). In our case here, we are using utah aggregate.

OK. After this point, we are ready to log on to the nodes and do our experiments! :-)

Using GENI Portal:
0. As usual, get a GENI Portal account via: ​https://panther.gpolab.bbn.com

1. Prepare Omni via: ​http://trac.gpolab.bbn.com/gcf/wiki/GettingGcf
As a result, if you have already installed omni, all u need to do now is to do "omni-configure.py -f portal"
Apparently GENI Portal also uses Omni to control and manage GENI resources.

2. To my understanding, GENI Portal is a web-based graphical interface for using Omni.
The using of GENI Portal is pretty straight forward, let's just follow the instructions here: ​http://groups.geni.net/geni/wiki/GENIExperimenter/Tutorials/PortalSimpleLayer2Example/ObtainResources

Next: Run Experiment
