Period: 4Q10

I. Major accomplishments

Created new images for host and OpenVZ containers. Improved the portability of PEN deployment by changing the approach of PEN integration by using Emulab tools.

A. Milestones achieved

Gave a UMLPEN tutorial at GEC9

B. Deliverables made

  • New host image for PEN support
  • New OpenVZ template for PEN containers
  • Handout materials for GEC9 tutorial attendees

II. Description of work performed during last quarter

A. Activities and findings

Tools and scripts for PEN integration were moved from Component Manager hacks to the downloadable PEN image. The previous PEN integration model relied upon modifications to the Component Manager which would need to be applied to each site utilizing a PEN node and re-applied after each Emulab or ProtoGENI update. In the new model we have moved all PEN integration scripts to the PEN host image. This facilitates rapid and easy cross-site deployment.
