GENI Monitoring Resource Check
This procedure outlines how to check the status and get statistics for a slice which has resources at multiple aggregates. It is assumed that the operator following this procedure has a login for the GENI Monitoring web interface. if you do not have an account see the instructions for Getting an Account page.
For an overview of the GENI Monitoring Web interface features see the GENI Monitoring Overview page.
Access Slice information
Slice information can be accessed in different ways in the GENI Monitoring web interface, all are highlighted here:
- From the Dashboard:
- If you know the slice name, simply select the
Slices
item in theDashboard
and type the slice name in the upper-right handSearch
box and then click on the slice name. This will update the bottom of the main panel to include aMap
,Members
andSlivers
for the slice name selected.
- If you are looking for the slices that belong to a specific user, select the
Users
item inDashboard
and type the user name in the upper-right handSearch
box and then click on the username. This will update the bottom of the main panel to include allSlivers
andSlices
for the username selected.
- From the Navigation Panel":
- If you want the GENI Monitoring information for a slice, in the left-side navigation select
GENI Objects->Slices
(same as selecting Dashboard).
- If you want the Data Store information reported for a slice, in the left-side navigation select
GENI Stores->Aggregates->Aggregate_Name
. This will update the bottom of the main panel to show available information. For example selecting the aggregateal2s.internet2.edu
will showSwitches
,Links
andSlivers
being reported by that network aggregate. In theSlivers
panel you can type in the slice name to narrow down the results to the slice of interest.
- If you want to know the GENI Clearinghouse information for a slice, in the left-side navigation select
GENI Stores->OPSConfig Stores->geni-prod
. This will update the bottom of the main panel to showAggregates
,Authorities
, andCheck Stores
. Select theAuthorities
panel and then click onch.geni.net
. This will provide you with the Clearinghouse view ofUsers
andSlices
Mapping Slices to Slivers and VLANs
This sections show how to get all sliver information associated with a slice. Currently only AL2S will report slice information. To show this procedure a slice named triangle
is being used, the slice includes a compute resource at each of 3 aggregates (uchicago-ig, nysernet-ig, and cenic-ig) which are connected as a triangle topology.
From the Dashboard
click on the Slices
item and search for triangle
. The search will result in the slice ID ch.geni.net_ln-test_slice_triangle
being shown. The slice id ch.geni.net_ln-test_slice_triangle
uses the format Clearinghouse_GENIProject_slice_Slicename
, therefore we can tell that ch.geni.net_ln-test_slice_triangle
is a slice from
the GENI Clearinghouse (ch.geni.net), in the project ln-test
and is named triangle
.
Click on the slice ID, this will update the bottom of the main panel to include all Members
and Slivers
for the slice triangle
. Select the Sliver
panel and click on the sliver ID, which is made up of the slice URN plus a unique identifier (urn:publicid:IDN+ch.geni.net:ln-test+slice+triangle:1bc9e85e-146c-4991-a4e9-96c5f3a5dee9). This results in Links
information being shown for the sliver as reported by AL2S:
We will select each of the links to show the endpoint associated with the link. For example when selected, the link I2-LOSA-NEWY32AOA-VLAN-51145
will show these end-points:
Selecting the first endpoint sdn-sw.losa.net.internet2.edu:eth5/1:1550
will show the Bytes Metrics Report:
Selecting the other endpoint sdn-sw.newy32aoa.net.internet2.edu:eth7/2:1714
will show Bytes Metrics Report:
Repeat for all endpoints associated with the two remaining links (I2-LOSA-STAR-VLAN-51146
and I2-NEWY32AOA-STAR-VLAN-51144
). All links have similar traffic levels.
Mapping Slices to Interfaces
To map a Slice to an interface, you should follow the procedure described in the previous section and when the endpoint is selected, you can choose the interface link:
and then see the overall interface traffic details:
The resulting interface page also includes an Endpoints
panel that lists all endpoint that are active on the interface.
Mapping a VLAN to Aggregates
If you want to know how a VLAN is used in the network, select the GENI Hardware->VLAN
in the navigation and enter the VLAN ID in the upper-right hand Search
box. In this example, we are looking for information for VLAN 3733:
The IDs returned are:
al2s.internet2.edu_interface_sdn-sw.newy32aoa.net.internet2.edu:eth15%2F6:rutgers-ig:3733
- the AL2S information for this VLAN, which shows that the VLAN is in use at "rutgers-ig" which is connected via the New York router "newy32aoa" to AL2S.instageni.rutgers.edu_interface_pc3:eth1:3733
- The compute resources information that shows that the VLAN is connected to a compute resources on pc3 (a xen server).instageni.rutgers.edu_interface_procurve2:1:19:3733
- The rack switch(procurve2) that is using VLAN 3733.
