| 3 | === 4) Run and orchestrate I&M services and experiment services to complete run of experiment === |
| 4 | |
| 5 | |
| 6 | 4.1) Initial setup: start basic host measurements and basic ping active network measurements |
| 7 | |
| 8 | - objectives: |
| 9 | - verify functionality of hosts |
| 10 | - verify topology of slice |
| 11 | |
| 12 | - observe measurements with a real-time presentation service |
| 13 | |
| 14 | - continue measurements throughout duration of the test/tutorial/experiment |
| 15 | |
| 16 | - at completion: |
| 17 | - functionality of hosts and topology of slice has been verified throughout duration of the experiment |
| 18 | |
| 19 | |
| 20 | 4.2) Continuity test: for a limited time, run iperf active network measurements |
| 21 | |
| 22 | - objectives: |
| 23 | - verify ability of slice to carry traffic expected from experiment |
| 24 | |
| 25 | - observe measurements with a real-time presentation service |
| 26 | |
| 27 | - once satisfactory measurements have been observed, stop continuity test |
| 28 | |
| 29 | - at completion: |
| 30 | - capability of slice to carry traffic expected from experiment has been verified |
| 31 | |
| 32 | |
| 33 | 4.3) Instrument and run experiment: |
| 34 | |
| 35 | - objectives: |
| 36 | - gather measurements during experiment that allow experiment goals to be met |
| 37 | |
| 38 | - include desired measurement points within hosts and/or experiment services to instrument test/tutorial/experiment |
| 39 | |
| 40 | - begin to run and orchestrate measurement services |
| 41 | |
| 42 | - begin to run and orchestrate experiment services |
| 43 | |
| 44 | - observe measurements with a real-time presentation service, to verify expected operation of experiment |
| 45 | |
| 46 | - collect all measurements for duration of experiment |
| 47 | |
| 48 | - stop experiment services, when this run of the experiment has been completed |
| 49 | |
| 50 | - stop measurement services |
| 51 | |
| 52 | - at completion: |
| 53 | - one run of experiment has been completed |
| 54 | - real-time look at measurements has verfied expected operation of experiment |
| 55 | - a full set of measurements has been collected, for later analysis and presentation |
| 56 | - collected measurments have been transfered to storage service, so that slice resources can be released (if desired) |
| 57 | |
| 58 | 4.4) Store collected measurements and other artifacts from test/tutorial/experiment in storage service |
| 59 | |
| 60 | - at completion: |
| 61 | - collected measurements and other artifacts have been transfered to storage service |
| 62 | - collected measurements and other artifacts are available for later analysis |
| 63 | - slice resources can then be released at any time, without loss of any measurements or artifacts |
