12. The 21st GENI Engineering Conference October 20-23, 2014 Indiana University, Bloomington, IN Experiences Happy that it works at all! GENI Stitching –Failures can cascade –Limited to one stitch per slice per ExoGENI site. –Can restart complicated ExoGEN slice InstaGENI –Slow booting compute nodes –Yay! Bigger nodes (4 cores, 30 GB disks) –Shared VLANs are awkwards Tools –None of the tools can visualize all aspects of slices 12

15. The 21st GENI Engineering Conference October 20-23, 2014 Indiana University, Bloomington, IN Rspec Extension Storage –~5 TB of sliverable storage on most racks –Add an iSCSI target to a slice –Can now be used with Rspecs 15

16. The 21st GENI Engineering Conference October 20-23, 2014 Indiana University, Bloomington, IN RSpec Extension: Groups Multiple nodes with shared specification –Same: image, instance type, location, networks Templated postboot scripts customize the nodes 16
