[[Include(WikiToC)]] == Resource Control with OMF == #omfquickstart [[TOC(UserGuide/OmfQuickStart,UserGuide/Omf/*,inline,nonumbering,depth=3,notitle)]] === A brief overview === OMF is a subset of OEDL which is a domain specific language providing a framwork to control and management functionalities for large scale testbeds with multiple networked resources. This framework is implemented as a set of libraries and services mainly written in Ruby. OMF can be used to initiate experiments, control resources & collect live measurements for recording and analysis. The full details for OMF [https://omf.orbit-lab.org/ can be found here.] To get quickly the sections below describe some of the most used OMF commands in the basic form. These commands are run from the testbed console. === OMF usage {{{#!shell-session user@console:~$ omf Run a command on the testbed(s) Usage: omf [COMMAND] [ARGUMENT]... Available COMMANDs: help Print this help message or a specify command usage exec Execute an experiment script load Load a disk image on a given set of nodes save Save a disk image from a given node into a file tell Switch a given set of nodes ON/OFF or reboot them stat Returns the status of a given set of nodes To get more help on individual commands: 'omf [COMMAND]' }}} === OMF status to retrieve status of node(s) {{{#!shell-session user@console:~$ omf status Returns the status of the nodes in a testbed. Usage: omf stat [-h] -t TOPOLOGY [-h] [-s] [-c AGGREGATE]}}} Arguments: -h, --help print this help message -t, --topology TOPOLOGY a valid topology file or description (MANDATORY) -s, --summary print a summary of the node status for the testbed -c, --config AGGREGATE use testbed AGGREGATE }}} Examples: Get the status of all nodes in the testbed. This is good way to find all the FQDN of the nodes in the console. {{{omf stat -t all}}} Get the status of a single node. {{{omf stat -t sdr2-md1.bed.cosmos-lab.org}}} Get the status of multiple nodes. Use a comma-separate list to specify multiple nodes in the topology (no space before or after the comma). {{{omf stat -t sdr2-md1.bed.cosmos-lab.org,srv1-co1.bed.cosmos-lab.org}}} === OMF tell to power on or off the node(s) {{{#!shell-session user@console:~$ omf tell Switch ON/OFF and reboot the nodes in a testbed. Usage: omf tell [-h] -t TOPOLOGY -a ACTION [-c AGGREGATE]}}} Arguments: -h, --help print this help message -a, --action ACTION specify an ACTION: on turn node(s) ON offs turn node(s) OFF (soft) offh turn node(s) OFF (hard) reboot reboots node(s) (soft) reset resets node(s) (hard) -t, --topology TOPOLOGY a valid topology file or description (MANDATORY) -c, --config AGGREGATE use testbed AGGREGATE }}} Examples: Reset (soft) a node. {{{omf tell -a reset -t sdr2-md1.bed.cosmos-lab.org}}} Reboot (hard) a node. {{{omf tell -a reboot -t sdr2-md1.bed.cosmos-lab.org}}} Turn on multiple nodes. {{{omf tell -a offh -t sdr2-md1.bed.cosmos-lab.org,srv1-co1.bed.cosmos-lab.org}}} Turn offh (hard) multiple nodes. {{{omf tell -a offh -t sdr2-md1.bed.cosmos-lab.org,srv1-co1.bed.cosmos-lab.org}}} === OMF load to install a disk image on the node(s) {{{#!shell-session user@console:~$ omf load Install a given disk image on the nodes in a testbed. Usage: omf load [-h] -t TOPOLOGY [-i IMAGE_PATH] [-o TIMEOUT] [-c AGGREGATE]}}} Arguments: -h, --help print this help message -t, --topology TOPOLOGY a valid topology file or description (MANDATORY) (if a file 'TOPOLOGY' doesn't exist, interpret it as a comma-separated list of nodes) -i, --image IMAGE disk image to load (default is 'baseline.ndz', the latest stable baseline image) -c, --config AGGREGATE use testbed AGGREGATE -o, --timeout TIMEOUT a duration (in sec.) after which imageNodes should stop waiting for nodes that have not finished their image installation (default is 800 sec, i.e. 13min 20sec) -r, --resize SIZE Resizes the first partition to SIZE GB or to maximum size if SIZE=0 or leave x percent of free space if SIZE=x% --outpath PATH Path where the resulting Topologies should be saved (default is '/tmp') --outprefix PREFIX Prefix to use for naming the resulting Topologies (default is your experiment ID) }}} Examples: Load the default baseline image (baseline.ndz) on all nodes in the testbed. {{{omf load -t system:topo:all -i baseline.ndz}}} Load a specific image (my_image.ndz) on all nodes in a topology. {{{omf load -t system:topo:all -i my_image.ndz}}} Load a specific image (my_image.ndz) onto a single node. {{{omf load -t sdr2-md1.bed.cosmos-lab.org -i my_image.ndz}}} Load a specific image (my_image.ndz) onto multiple nodes with a timeout of 400 seconds. {{{omf load -t sdr2-md1.bed.cosmos-lab.org,srv1-co1.bed.cosmos-lab.org -i my_image.ndz -o 400}}} === OMF save to export the disk image from a single node into the repository. {{{#!shell-session user@console:~$ omf save Save a disk image from a given node into an archive file. Usage: omf save -n NODE [-h] [-c AGGREGATE]}}} Arguments: -h, --help print this help message -n, --node NODE a valid description of a single node (MANDATORY) (no default here, you have to enter a node!) -r, --resize SIZE Resizes the first partition to SIZE GB or to maximum size if SIZE=0 or leave x percent of free space if SIZE=x% }}} NODE must be specified in FQDN (fully qualified domain name) format (eg. node1-1.sb1.orbit-lab.org). Examples: Save the disk image from a node. {{{omf save -n sdr2-md1.bed.cosmos-lab.org}}} === omf exec to execute an OEDL script {{{#!shell-session user@console:~$ omf exec Execute an experiment script. Usage: exec [OPTIONS] ExperimentName [-- EXP_OPTIONS]}}} !ExperimentName is the filename of the experiment script [EXP_OPTIONS] are any options defined in the experiment script [OPTIONS] are any of the following: -a, --allow-missing Continue experiment even if some nodes did not check in -c, --config NAME Configuration section from the config file ('default' if omitted) -C, --configfile FILE File containing local configuration parameters -d, --debug Operate in debug mode -i, --interactive Run the experiment controller in interactive mode -l, --libraries LIST Comma separated list of libraries to load (defaults to [system:exp:stdlib,system:exp:eventlib,system:exp:winlib]) --log FILE File containing logging configuration information -m, --message MESSAGE Message to add to experiment trace -n, --just-print Print the commands that would be executed, but do not execute them -N, --no-am Don't use the Aggregate Manager (AM) -p, --print URI Print the contents of the experiment script -o, --output-result FILE File to write final state information to -e, --experiment-id EXPID Set the ID for this experiment, instead of the default standard ID -O, --output-app Display STDOUT & STDERR output from the executed applications -r, --reset If set, then reset (reboot) the nodes before the experiment -s, --shutdown If set, then shut down resources at the end of an experiment -S, --slice NAME Name of the Slice where this EC should operate -t, --tags TAGS Comma separated list of tags to add to experiment trace --oml-uri URI The URI to the OML server for this experiment -x, --extra-libs LIST Comma separated list of libraries to load in addition to [system:exp:stdlib,system:exp:eventlib,system:exp:winlib] --slave-mode EXPID Run in slave mode in disconnected experiment, EXPID is the exp. ID --slave-mode-resource NAME When in slave mode, NAME is the HRN of the resource for this EC -h, --help Show this message -v, --version Show the version }}}
