7. Teardown Experiment
|
When you are done with your experiment it is always good to clean up and release your resources so other people can use them.

8. Archive Experiment
- If your experiment worked, save your
site.txt
and site-X.xml
files in version control.
NEXT! Grow Your Experiment!
Now that you have successfully reserved a small topology, you can now grow your topology.
- Make a copy of
site.txt
.
cp site.txt bigsite.txt
- Edit
bigsite.txt
to have more nodes in the core star topology.
num_nodes = 5
- Also change the nodes listed under
[host]
to include all of nodes 2-6
.
node_list=2,3,4,5,6
- Change the name of the output file (replace
X
with the value from your worksheet) to:
output_rspec=bigsite-X.xml
- Go back to the Design/Setup and repeat everything from Step 3.1.d onward.
- How would you go about making a topology besides a star? What if you wanted to install different software on one of the nodes?

Look at the geni-lib/tools/scaleup/readme.txt and the files in geni-lib/tools/scaleup/sample_configuration for clues.

- View (but do not reserve) a few RSpecs. The Jacks standalone editor is good for this.
