Welcome to GENI Operations

The GENI operations team consists of representatives from GENI aggregate providers, the GENI MetaOperations Center (GMOC), and the GPO.

See the operators pages for network engineering information about GENI sites.

Please see GpoDoc for documents describing the GENI concept of operations, and operations procedures such as Emergency Stop.

If you are a GENI aggregate (resource) provider or a GENI campus operator, please sign up for the ​GENI Response Team mailing list. This list is primarily for those providing production engineering and support to GENI. List members receive all GENI mesoscale outage and maintenance notifications from the GMOC. The GMOC also posts these ​notifications on the GMOC calendars.

If you plan to take down a GENI resource for planned maintenance OR if you notice a GENI resource has an unexpected outage, you should ​email or ​phone operations. Please provide as much warning as possible for scheduled maintenance activities, and be sure to check the ​operations calendars for conflicting events before scheduling any maintenance.

GMOC live GENI measurement data is available ​on the web.

GENIProduction lists all GENI production resources. GeniAggregate lists all existing aggregates. Links on this page lead to Aggregate Information Pages with more details about the aggregates and how to use them.
