    1414  The Initialization Phase is required for the GENIDesktop to setup some basic infrastructure for it to communicate with a user's slice. GENI Slice used at the GENIDesktop will be auto-initialized without any user interaction.

    1818== Instrument your Slice ==
     
    2121  Once a user's experiment is running, he/she may want to collect statistics (system/network). The statistics are collected passively from the nodes. Passive measurements may include, monitoring the traffic flow on links/nodes, system statistics like CPU and Memory monitoring, monitoring of system processes, IP tables and routes where in no data is actually sent through your nodes/link. All data collected is from the activity being performed by you or the Testbed on your nodes.  The Instrumentation Phase involves installing a lot of software on your nodes including the global node.

    2325=== Why is Instrumentize Needed? ===
    2426  Once instrumentized, you can use the full capability of the GENIDesktop. This includes viewing network and system graphs, tabular data collected from your nodes, and reconfiguring the data you want collected and displayed. You also now have the ability to archive your data to your Irods account created at the !GeniPortal. Once instrumentized, there will be additional data collection routines and daemons running on your nodes. The additional system and memory load should be minimal though and should not affect the performance of your nodes. You should also be able to use features you had when you initialized your slice. All slices are automatically instrumentized when using the GENIDesktop.
