486=head1 NAME
487
488B<splitter.pl>
489
490=head1 SYNOPSIS
491
[9c00d41]492B<splitter.pl> [B<-nd>] [B<-c> F<config_file>] [B<-f> F<experiment_tcl>]
[63f7c7e]493    [F<experiment_tcl>]
[1a8a08a]494
495=head1 DESCRIPTION
496
497B<splitter.pl> invokes the DETER experiment parser to split an annotated
498experiment into multiple sub-experments and instantiates the sub-experiments on
499their intended testbeds.  Annotation is accomplished using the
500tb-set-node-testbed command, added to the parser.
501
502The testbed labels are meaningful based on their presence in the testbeds file.
[9c00d41]503that file can be specified in the configuration file using the B<Testbeds>
504directive, and defaults to F<./testbeds>.  The syntax is described below.
505
506Most of the intermediate files are staged in a sub-directory of a temporary
507files directory and deleted at the end of the script.  Specifying the B<-d>
508flag on the command line avoids the deletion for debbugging.  By default the
509temporary files directory is directory is F</tmp> and can be reset in the
510configuration file using the B<Tmpdir> directive.  Intermediate files are
511stored under a subdirectory formed by adding the process ID of the splitter
512process.  For example, if the temporary files directory is F</tmp> and the
513B<splitter.pl> process ID is 2323, the temporary files will be stored in
514F</tmp/split2323/>.
[1a8a08a]515
516The expreriment is split out into one experiment description per testbed in the
[9c00d41]517temporary directory named as F<experiment.testbed.tcl> where the experiment is
518the experiment ID given in the configuration file, and the testbed is the
519tb-set-node-testbed parameter for the nodes in the file.
[1a8a08a]520
521If the B<-n> option is absent the sub-experiments are then instantiated on
522their testbeds.  (Here B<-n> is analogous to its use in L<make(1)>).
[9c00d41]523Per-testbed parameters are set in the testbeds file.  Sub-experiments on
[1a8a08a]524slave testbeds are instantiated in a random order, but the master testbed is
525currently instantiated last.
526
[9c00d41]527Scripts to start federation (the federation kit) are copied into the local
528experiment's tmp file - e.g., F</proj/DETER/exp/simple-split/tmp>.  These are
529taken from the directory given by the B<ScriptDir> directive in the
530configuration file.
[63f7c7e]531
[1a8a08a]532If any sub-experiment fails to instantiate, the other sub-exeriments are
533swapped out.
534
[9c00d41]535=head2 Configuration File
536
537The configuration file is a simple attribute-value pair set of colon-separated
538parameters and values.  A configuration file must be present, either specified
539in the B<-c> flag or the default F<./splitter.conf>.  All the parameter names
540are case insensitive, but should not include any whitespace.  Parameter values
541may include whitespace, but no newlines.
542
543Possible parameters are:
544
545=over 5
546
547=item Experiment
548
549The name of the experiment on the various testbeds
550
551=item Master
552
553The master testbed label from the testbeds file, described below.
554
555=item Testbeds
556
557The testbeds file described below, giving per-testbed parameters.  If this
558directive is absent the testbeds file defaults to F<./testbeds>
559
560=item ScriptDir
561
562Location of the default federation scripts, i.e. the federation kit.
563
564=item GatewayPubkey
565
566=item GatewaySecretKey
567
568The names of the files containing secret and public keys to use in setting up
569tunnels between testbeds.  These will eventually be automatically generated.
570
571=item TmpDir
572
573=item TempDir
574
575The directory where temporary files are created.  These are synonyms, but
576should both be specified, B<TmpDir> has priority.  If neither is specified,
577F</tmp> is used.
578
579=item Tclparse
580
581The pathname to the experiment parsing program.  Only developers should set
582this.
583
584=item Tclsh
585
586The pathname to the local oTcl shell.  Only developers should set
587this.
588
589=back
590
591=head2 Testbeds file
[1a8a08a]592
593The configuration file (F<./testbeds> unless overridden by B<-c>) is a
594colon-separated set of parameters keyed by testbed name.  The fields, in order,
595are:
596
597=over 5
598
599=item name
600
601The testbed to which this line of parameters applies.
602
603=item user
604
605The user under which to make requests to this testbed.  The user running
606B<splitter.pl> must be able to authenicate as this user under L<ssh(1)> to this
607testbed.
608
[c23025e]609=item host
610
611The host name of the testbed's ops node.  The user calling B<splitter.pl> must
612be able to execute commands on this host via L<ssh(1)>.
613
614=item domain
615
616The domain of nodes in this testbed (including the ops host).
617
[1a8a08a]618=item project
619
620The project under which to instantiate sub-experiments on this testbed.
621
622=item gateway type
623
624The node type for inter-testbed gateway nodes on this testbed.
625
626=item experiment start (slave)
627
628The start command to run on experimental nodes when this testbed is used as a
[9c00d41]629slave.  In all the start commands the string FEDDIR will be replaced by the
630local experiment's federation scripts directory and the string GWCONF replaced
631by the gatway configuration file.
[1a8a08a]632
633=item gateway start (slave)
634
[9c00d41]635The start command to run on gateway nodes when this testbed is used as a slave.
636The same string substitutions are made in this command as in experiment start.
[1a8a08a]637
638=item experiment start (master)
639
640The start command to run on experimental nodes when this testbed is used as a
[9c00d41]641master.  The same string substitutions are made in this command as in
642experiment start.
[1a8a08a]643
644=item gateway start (master)
645
646The start command to run on gateway nodes when this testbed is used as a
[9c00d41]647master.  The same string substitutions are made in this command as in
648experiment start.
[1a8a08a]649
650=item gateway image
651
652The disk image to be loaded on a gateway node on this testbed.
653
654=back
655
[9c00d41]656The parsing of the testbeds is extremely simple.  Colons separate each
[1a8a08a]657field and there is n provision for escaping them at this time.
658
659=head1 ENVIRONMENT
660
661B<splitter.pl> does not directly make use of environment variables, but calls
662out to L<ssh(1)> and (indirectly) to L<sh(1)>, which may be influenced by the
663environment.
