Agenda / Details

This software development session provides an opportunity for GENI engineers to collaborate in real time on a particular software or documentation issue. The topic(s) will be selected well in advance of the conference, based on need and key party availability. Expected topics include:

  • Planning the roll out of Speaks For to aggregates, tools, and clearinghouses
  • An update on the state of the Clearinghouse API and implementations
  • geni-get: implementation status and standardization efforts
  • Renew for as long as possible at aggregates: See the AM API change proposal
  • Updates on topics raised at the GEC 17 coding sprint, like long lived slices and updating SSH keys on nodes
  • Other topics that come up during the GEC or that participants in the room want to discuss

The GPO will also hold a tutoring session for GENI experimenters, where experimenters can come and work on various online GENI tutorials. The list of available tutorials will be advertised in advance of the GEC. The GPO will answer questions and provide assistance. Experimenters with an idea they want to work on are encouraged to come do so in the same room, so that they can have support from the on site GPO staff and other experimenters.

GPO operations staff will also be available to help GENI ops/admin folks who'd like a hand getting set up with GENI credentials, the Omni command-line tool, etc. This can be useful if you're running a GENI aggregate, so you can create a slice and some slivers, and test for yourself whether the aggregate manager is working like you expect. We'll also be happy to discuss any other topics of interest to the ops/admin community.
