     42This script sets up an experiment directory within the user's iRODS account. The user and GIMI will store objects associated with this experiment in this directory. In the example below the experiment directory is called “myExperiment” .[[BR]]
     43Template OMF scripts are also added to the user's iRODS account in their own folder titled “experimentTemplates” the first time a user runs this script.[[BR]]

     48Descriptor files are generated which collect metadata about the experiment and objects being pushed into iRODS. These descriptor files are used to help organize and search for data. "project.xml" and “experiment.xml” are descriptor files created in each experiment directory. [[BR]]

     53The user is asked if he would like the manifest rspecs from his slice to be added to this experiment directory in iRODS. If the user says yes, a new directory is created within the experiment directory. The manifest rspecs are then pushed to this new directory and descriptor files are created. In this example "TwoVMs" and "ThreeVMs" are manifest rspecs and "artifact.xml" and “step.xml” are descriptor files. [[BR]]
