     43
     44 From Sec. 2 of  the GENI I&M Architecture document:  [[BR]]
     45
     46  In addition, the GENI operations staff  require extensive and reliable instrumentation and measurement capabilities to monitor and troubleshoot the GENI suite and its constituent entities.  Some of this data will be made available to experimenters, to help them conduct useful and repeatable experiments.   [[BR]]
     47
     48  The GMOC, providing GENI-wide operator services, needs to monitor essentially all GENI infrastructure on a 24x7 basis.  In this case, the GMOC Operator will gather, analyze and present MD that monitors hundreds of infrastructure elements.  [[BR]]
