    99== Six Steps ==
    1010A typical experiment requires the following six steps:
    11  1. [[CollapsibleStart(Create resource reservation)]][[Include(Documentation/Short/CreateRes)]][[CollapsibleEnd]]
    12 The user needs a set of nodes/resources from a domain to run the experiment on.For the rest of this tutorial we will assume that the the reserveation was made for sb1 domain.
    13  2.  [[CollapsibleStart(Login into reserved domain: "ssh username@sb1.orbit-lab.org")]][[Include(Documentation/Short/Login)]][[CollapsibleEnd]]
    14 After you receive the confirmation email, you can access the reserved domain by ssh to the corresponding domain console.
    15  3.  [[CollapsibleStart(Load an image on the nodes: "omf load -i baseline.ndz -t all")]] [[Include(Documentation/Short/LoadImage)]][[CollapsibleEnd]]
    16 Prior to executing the "Hello World" experiment, users need to install an image on the hard disks of the nodes. For this tutorial we will use '''baseline.ndz'''. This image is built on top of '''Ubuntu 12.04''', and is pre-configured with the proper modules and start up scripts to take advantage of the rest of the Orbit [wiki:/Software software] / [wiki:/Hardware hardware]. The imaging process will turn the nodes back off after completing imaging.
    17  4. [[CollapsibleStart(Turn the nodes on: "omf tell -a on -t all")]][[Include(Documentation/Short/TellOn)]][[CollapsibleEnd]]
    18 At this point the nodes disks are imaged with the ''baseline'' image and need to be turned back on before proceeding. Give the nodes a couple of minutes to turn on / boot, then check their status with omf stat
    19  5. [[CollapsibleStart(Execute the experiment: "omf exec test:exp:tutorial:hello-world-wireless -- --res1 node1-1.sb1.orbit-lab.org --res2 node1-2.sb1.orbit-lab.org")]][[Include(Software/cOMF/aExec)]][[CollapsibleEnd]]
    20 Execute "Hello World" experiment. This is a simple wireless experiment that establishes the !WiFi link between two nodes and transfers data for 60 seconds. Be sure to specify the fully qualified domain names (FQDNs) of the two nodes involved.  For the output below, it is assumed that the domain is: '''sb1.orbit-lab.org''' and the two nodes are '''node1-1.sb1.orbit-lab.org''' and '''node1-2.sb1.orbit-lab.org'''.

     15  ''For the rest of this tutorial we will assume that the the reservation was made for the sb1 domain.''

     17  [[CollapsibleStart(2. Login into reserved domain)]]
     18  "ssh username@sb1.orbit-lab.org"
     19  After you receive the confirmation email, you can access the reserved domain by SSH'ing to the corresponding domain console.
     20  [[Include(Documentation/Short/Login)]]
     21  [[CollapsibleEnd]]
     22  [[CollapsibleStart(3. Load an image on the nodes)]]
     23  "omf load -i baseline.ndz -t all"

     27  [[CollapsibleStart(4. Turn the nodes on)]]
     28  "omf tell -a on -t all"
     29  At this point the nodes disks are imaged with the ''baseline'' image and need to be turned back on before proceeding. Give the nodes a couple of minutes to turn on / boot, then check their status with omf stat.
