 As with other commands in the fedd package, it is installed in `/usr/local/bin` by default.
+
+== fedd_create.py ==
+
+This command creates a federated experiment from an experiment description.  It does the equivalent of a call to `fedd_new.py` to make an allocation and then attaches resources and services as described in the description file.  On completion it returns the name of the experiment, and if requested using the '''--experiment_cert''' parameter, a certificate that grants access to the experiment.
+
+When `fedd_create.py` returns, the experiment has not yet fully been created, it is simply in progress.  Users can poll the experiment controller by issuing `fedd_multistatus.py` commands or wait for the experiment to be instantiated using `fedd_spewlog.py`.
