| 29 | The [http://groups.geni.net/geni/wiki/INSTAGENI InstaGENI project] is designing, documenting, and building GENI racks, with a combination of host and networking resources, at several campus sites, for use by GENI experimenters. Initial versions of the InstaGENI racks will use ProtoGENI software for control and management. |
| 30 | |
| 31 | The [http://groups.geni.net/geni/wiki/GEMINI GEMINI project] is developing an instrumentation and measurement framework, capable of supporting the needs of both GENI experimenters and GENI infrastructure operators. Currently, it includes functionality from two recent GENI projects: INSTOOLS and LAMP. (LAMP is based on the perfSONAR system, modified for use in the GENI environment.) GEMINI will collect and manage both substrate metrics and active network measurements. |
| 32 | |
| 33 | The first part of this tutorial will be focus on gathering resources for an experiment from InstaGENI/protoGENI racks into a slice, and then conducting a basic experiment. (If an InstaGENI rack is not available for use in this part of the tutorial, a ProtoGENI instance from a differnet cluster will be used.) [[BR]] |
| 34 | |
| 35 | The second part of this session will introduce the GEMINI instrumentation and measurement (I&M) tools, and then show how to instrument an experiment that is executed on an InstaGENI/ProtoGENI slice. (At this time, running the current GEMINI code on an InstaGENI rack is not practical; instead, the part of the tutorial will be run on a ProtoGENI instance at the Univ of Kentucky. [[BR]] |
| 36 | |
| 37 | After successfully finishing the tutorial, attendees should be able to instrument their own InstaGENI/ProtoGENI-based experiments. (It is expected that InstaGENI racks will become available shortly after GEC14, and a port-mapping feature in the ProtoGENI software will soon be avaialble. Then, the GEMINI software will be tested, and then be made available, for operation on InstaGENI racks. [[BR]] |
