GeniDesktop/FAQ
v25 v26 26 26 27 27 Again this could be due to a variety of reasons. For example, the InstaGENI rack may not have more memory or disk space to create any more VMs. Another major problem that is encountered is is lack of free Routable IP addresses which is required by the Global Node. You can use the GENI Monitoring system for find rack that satisfies your requirement. [https://genimon.uky.edu/status] . In particular look for an Instageni rack that is available and has the least number of VMs allocated and at least some Routable IP available. 28 29 28 [[BR]] 30 29 [[BR]] 31 30 === 5. I see the message "There is an error in your slice". What do I do ? === 31 Please be patient and wait for at least 5 minutes. Occasionally the InstageRack is too busy to respond to status queries from the GENIDesktop. The GENIDesktop tries its best to get the status by using a backoff polling mechanism. Things may resume even after you see this error. If workflow does not proceed even after 5 minutes. Please logout of the GENIDesktop and wait for around 15 minutes and try to login and proceed again. If you still do not see productive results, please contact us at genidesktop-admins@netlab.uky.edu so that we may help you out. You may also cc, the GENI Users's mailing list (google group) and others who may have seen the same issue may be able to help you even before we do. 32 32 [[BR]] 33 33 [[BR]] 34 34 === 6.
