I&M Design Topics
Tuesday, March 19, 10:30am - 12noon
Room:
Session leader: Harry Mussman (GENI Project Office, Raytheon BBN Technologies)
Description
This I&M session will focus on the key issues of interest to both the GIMI and GEMINI projects, as they continue to work towards a comprehensive set of I&M tools for GENI experimenters and for infrastructure measurement. In particular, we will consider the services and functions that can be used by both the GIMI and GEMINI projects.
We will form teams that can resolve these issues.
Finally, we will discuss the I&M goals for the next 4 months, particularly how to best support experimenters and those doing infrastructure measurement.

Goals and Approach
- Work towards a "unified experiment environment".
- Help groups prepare responses to Sol 4
Current overall experiment configuration
Summary of current experiment steps
Possible next steps towards a “unified experiment environment”.
Today’s discussion topics:
- Common graphical resource assignment tool
- Rationalization of all graphical portals, and all graphical tools
- Introduction of OMF to configure/orchestrate I&M and ExpApp services

b) Meeting Introduction Harry Mussman 5min
Goals and Approach
Work towards a "unified experiment environment". Help groups prepare responses to Sol 4
Current overall experiment configuration
Summary of current experiment steps, and possible next steps towards a “unified experiment environment”.
Today’s discussion topics:
Support GIMI and GEMINI I&M tools on both ExoGENI and InstaGENI racks Use instrumentize script, driven by rspec extension, to configure/init I&M tools Options for further measurement data analysis and presentation
c) Support GIMI and GEMINI I&M tools on both ExoGENI and InstaGENI racks 25min
- Overview
Harry Mussman S3: Obtain slice, install software Now: GIMI using ExoGENI, Flukes; loads images/pkgs Now: GEMINI using InstaGENI, FLACK; loads images/pkgs
Next: be able to use GEMINI on ExoGENI, and GIMI on InstaGENI Suggest: set goal to begin testing all combinations starting 5/1; good support by GEC17; discuss at I&M session
- Lessons learned from using GIMI tools on ExoGENI racks
Cong Wang 10min 4 slides: current config; current capabilities and issues; future possibilities
- Lessons learned from using GEMINI tools on InstaGENI racks
Hussam Nasir 10min 4 slides: current config; current capabilities and issues; future possibilities
- Discussion
15min Cong Wang; Hussam Nasir; (Ilia Baldine); (Rob Ricci); Louisa Nevers; Jeanne Ohren
[Any topics, suggestions and issues suggested AHEAD OF TIME by members of roundtable]
[At the end: any conclusions, list of issues, team to continue discussion]
d) Use instrumentize script, driven by rspec extension, to configure/init I&M tools
- Overview
Harry Mussman S4: Configure/init I&M and exp app Now: GIMI using post boot scripts, OMF Now: GEMINI using instrumentize script, choices based on rspec extension; also used to add GN
Next: move towards common approach, to better unify experiment environment Suggest: both move towards script, driven by rspec ext; discuss at I&M session
- Current GIMI use of post boot scripts, OMF, to configure/inti services
Cong Wang 5min 2 slides: current config; current capabilities and issues; future possibilities
- Current GEMINI use of instrumentize script, to configure/init services
Hussam Nasir 5min 2 slides: current config; current capabilities and issues; future possibilities
- Discussion
10min Cong Wang; Hussam Nasir; Aaron Helsinger; Jeanne Ohren
[Any topics, suggestions and issues suggested AHEAD OF TIME by members of roundtable]
[At the end: any conclusions, list of issues, team to continue discussion]
e) Options for further measurement data analysis and presentation
- Overview
Harry Mussman S6: Analyze Now: Both GEMINI and GIMI push measurement data objects (files) to GENI Storage Service (iRODS) Now: GEMINI provides dump of mongo DB, plus separate file of metadata Now: GIMI (will) provide SQLdump of PostgreSQL DB, which includes metadata
Now: Both use portal on GENI Storage Service (iRODS) to curate files (objects)
Both: Pull measurement data files from GENI Storage Service (iRODS) back to user workspace, where DBs can be reconstituted, and data pulled for further analysis and presentation. Both: Many options for further analysis and presentation, not being developed as part of tools.
Next: Consider possible ways to unify data formats, analysis and presentation Suggest: Discuss what might be possible, and potential approaches at I&M session
