Latest news
Refactoring of the users' portal
We refactored the users' portal page of the Grid'5000 website, in order to give a better structure to the set of tutorials and guides. Some titles were slightly modified as well as some content, but you should be able to find all the information you were using so far easily.
For new comers, we hope it will be easier to find out efficiently how to use the testbed and its many features.
Also note that we removed the list of pages automatically provided by the wiki engine at the bottom, as we think this was not so relevant. All pages, even the outdated ones, can however still be found in the wiki.

Grid'5000 General Conditions of Use now available
To clarify the legal frame and the application of law surrounding Grid'5000 usage, we added a "General Conditions of Use" document to the Usage Policy.
From now on, usage of Grid'5000 must be in accordance with those two documents:
- https://www.grid5000.fr/w/Grid5000:General_Conditions_of_Use

New monitoring service for Grid'5000 available for beta testing
We are happy to announce a new service to provide environmental and performance metrics monitoring for Grid'5000 experiments.
The service uses the Kwollect framework and currently makes following metrics available:
- Energy consumption from dedicated “wattmetre” devices (currently available for some clusters in Lyon, Grenoble, Nancy) - Metrics collected from nodes’ Board Management Controller (out-of-band management hardware, such as Dell iDRAC), such as ambient temperature, hardware component temperature, energy consumption from PSU, fan speed, etc. - Traffic collected from network devices - Energy consumption from PDU, when available
It is also planned to add more metrics in the future.
The service documentation is available at:
https://www.grid5000.fr/w/Monitoring_Using_Kwollect
The service is currently in beta. Many things may change in the future. Feel free to give us your feedback at support-staff@lists.grid5000.fr

Grid’5000 resources now available through the Fed4FIRE federation.
We have the pleasure to announce that Grid’5000 is now accessible through the Fed4FIRE European testbed federation. https://www.grid5000.fr/w/Fed4FIRE
Fed4FIRE is the largest federation worldwide of Next Generation Internet (NGI) testbeds, which provide open, accessible and reliable facilities supporting a wide variety of different research and innovation communities and initiatives in Europe.
The Grid’5000 Aggregate Manager will allow the provisioning of Grid’5000 nodes to members of the federation using the federation’s jFed-Experiment application, or tools designed to access GENI testbeds.
Please note that functions related to VLANs and inter-testbed stitching are still in development, and cannot yet be performed through the Aggregate Manager.
Grid’5000 users wanting to use the aggregate manager should link their Fed4FIRE account to their Grid’5000 one using the process described in the wiki.
