GEMINI Tutorials

GEMINI is an instrumentation and measurement framework for the GENI network, and can be used by GENI users to monitor and record information about their (running) experiment.

The purpose of this page is to point users to the most recent version of the GEMINI tutorial, as well as to serve as a pointer to past versions of the tutorial. Because GEMINI is still under development, the features it offers is rapidly changing and advancing. Consequently, please be aware that instructions from past tutorials may no longer work with the current version of GEMINI.

Just a quick note about the GENI Desktop. GEMINI is fully integrated with the GENI Desktop. As a result, the distinction between the GENI Desktop and GEMINI can sometimes be confusing. Basically, the GENI Desktop provides a graphical user interface to view the measurement data collected by the GEMINI measurement system. However, over time the GENI Desktop has been enhanced to provide a long list of GUI features that go beyond providing access to GEMINI measurement data. For example, the GENI Desktop can be used to access FLACK, the portal, the iRods services, create slices, delete slices, ssh into nodes, etc. In that sense, the GENI Desktop is much more than just the GEMINI GUI.
