33 | | 1. Determine which nodes can be used as exclusive nodes. |
34 | | 2. Obtain 2 licensed recent Microsoft OS images for physical nodes from the site (BBN). |
35 | | 4. Reserve and boot 2 physical nodes using Microsoft image. |
36 | | 5. Obtain a recent Linux OS image for physical nodes from the InstaGENI list. |
37 | | 6. Reserve and boot a physical node using this Linux OS image. |
38 | | 7. Release physical node resource. |
39 | | 8. Modify Aggregate resource allocation for the rack to add 1 additional physical node. |
| 32 | == Step 1. Determine which nodes can be used as exclusive nodes == |
| 33 | |
| 34 | Able to determine which node are exclusive and if they are available via Omni listresources. No issues found. |
| 35 | !ListResources obtained with the following Omni command: |
| 36 | {{{ |
| 37 | $ ./src/omni.py -a insta-utah listresources --available --api-version 2 -t GENI 3 -o |
| 38 | }}} |
| 39 | |
| 40 | == Step 2. Obtain 2 licensed recent Microsoft OS images for physical nodes from the site (BBN) == |
| 41 | |
| 42 | Need to talk to Peter about licenses and Windows VM images. Need to get InstaGENI folks to document the |
| 43 | non-support of MS Windows ([http://groups.geni.net/instageni/ticket/13 ticket 13]). |
| 44 | |
| 45 | == Step 3. Reserve and boot 2 physical nodes using Microsoft image == |
| 46 | |
| 47 | == Step 4. Obtain a recent Linux OS image for physical nodes from the InstaGENI list == |
| 48 | |
| 49 | Have requested the list of currently supported OS by InstaGENI. Initially only Standard 32-bit Fedora 15 image was available, two images have been added to the list of available OS in the Utah InstaGENI rack ([http://groups.geni.net/instageni/ticket/13 ticket 13]). Need to test each images made available to experimenters, by setting up a 2 raw pc with 1 lan experiment for each image and attach Rspec: |
| 50 | - FreeBSD 8.2 32-bit version |
| 51 | - Standard 64-bit Ubuntu 11 image |
| 52 | - Standard 32-bit Fedora 15 image (default) |
| 53 | |
| 54 | Commands used: |
| 55 | {{{ |
| 56 | $ ./src/omni.py -a insta-utah createslice image |
| 57 | $ ./src/omni.py -a insta-utah createsliver image ./instarspec/insta-2rawpc-bsd82.rspec --api-version 2 -t GENI 3 # |
| 58 | }}} |
| 59 | |
| 60 | Add link to RSpecs here XXXX. |
| 61 | |
| 62 | == Step 5. Reserve and boot a physical node using this Linux OS image == |
| 63 | |
| 64 | Need to verify each of the available images. |
| 65 | |
| 66 | == Step 6. Release physical node resource == |
| 67 | Need to verify each of the available images. |
| 68 | |
| 69 | == Step 7. Modify Aggregate resource allocation for the rack to add 1 additional physical node == |
