| 8 | == 1 Install Omni == |
| 9 | This tutorial will use Omni, which is a command line interface tool for reserving GENI resources. If you do not already have Omni installed and set up, please follow step 1 (Configuring Omni with your GENI Account) [wiki:HelloOmni here]. Please note, it may take 30-45 minutes to get Omni installed and configured. |
