= Basic Tutorial/Experiment with GIMI v1.1 I&M Tools:  Instructions =

== Tutorial Overview ==
  * This tutorial will show how to reserve resources with [https://geni-orca.renci.org/trac/wiki/flukes/ Flukes] tool, implement experiments on [http://wiki.exogeni.net ExoGENI] testbed via OML/OMF, analyze measurement results, and store and retrieve data to/fromm [https://www.irods.org/ iRODS].
  * In this tutorial, Users are expected to get familiar with GIMI tools and command line based OML/OMF, in order to submit experiment scripts, run experiments, and get visualized results.
  * As GIMI I&M service example, users will get hands on experience on setting up a specific topology, add routing on top of that topology and measure the network performance based on UDP packet size.

== Common Errors ==
 * Be careful cutting and pasting
  * '''Doesn’t work from Trac'''
  * Sometimes even txt file inserts hidden characters
  * Some lines require edits; don’t cut and paste the newline

 * Make terminal windows big
  * Sometimes terminal gets corrupted when pasting a line that runs to the next line (especially when backspacing)
