B. Obtain Slice

Image Map

2) Obtain slice of GENI resources, install I&M tools and experiment services

B.1 Select target aggregates

In this tutorial, we focus on ExoGENI and do not select any additional aggregates. In future tutorials we will present how GIMI can support experiments on other aggregates and a combination of aggregates (e.g., ExoGENI and WiMAX).


B.2 Formulate slice topology for experiment, and build request rspec

We will not go into any detail on this topic since this is covered in the ExoGENI tutorial.


B.2 Acquire resources and load images/packages for I&M tools and experiment services

B.2.1 Flukes

Before experimenters can use Flukes the properties file for it has to be modified. Open the properties file with your favorite text editor (e.g., nano):

$ nano ~/.flukes.properties

Then change the file as indicated below.

# Do not change these
orca.xmlrpc.url=https://geni.renci.org:11443/orca/xmlrpc,https://rci-hn.exogeni.net:11443/orca/xmlrpc,https://bbn-hn.exogeni.net:11443/orca/xmlrpc,https://nicta-hn.exogeni.net:11443/orca/xmlrpc
ssh.options=-o UserKnownHostsFile=/dev/null -o StrictHostKeyChecking=no -X
xterm.path=/usr/bin/xterm

# replace XX with your user index (with leading 0, if necessary)
user.keystore=/home/geniuser/Tutorials/GIMI/gimiXX/ssh/gimiXX.jks
ssh.key=/home/geniuser/Tutorials/GIMI/gimiXX/ssh/gimiXX_key
ssh.pubkey=/home/geniuser/Tutorials/GIMI/gimiXX/ssh/gimiXX_key.pub

image1.name=gec14-gimi-image
image1.url=http://emmy9.casa.umass.edu/GEC14-GIMI-Tutorial/dilip-gec14.xml
image1.hash=8cc0ebc000f2332fa51d42f14b3cae16d43518ab 

Now start Flukes by clicking on the icon on the VM's desktop.

B.2.2 Omni


2.1) Select target aggregates 2.2) Select desired software images/packages for I&M tools and experiment services

2.3) Obtain certs, credentials, passwords and keys

2.4) Formulate slice topology for experiment, and build request rspec

2.5) Acquire resources and load images/packages for I&M tools and experiment services

2.6) Start selected software processes

2.7) Confirm slice with installed I&M tools and experiment services
