With 2 EG only links, cannot have only 1 use GENI stitching #765

Open ahelsing opened 9 years ago

If a single EG AM is involved in 2 EG only links, you cannot make only 1 be EG only. The problem is that the SCS will create a path for the one you request, but the ExoSM will also create a path for that link: there is no way to tell the ExoSM to not create a circuit for that path.

I think currently this may not really be an issue

Can we edit the request to the ExoSM to tell it to set up the link out the GENI stitching interface for a link, and not create an ExoGENI link for that path?

Or must we insist that any link for which both endpoints are (going to be) the ExoSM must be EG stitching?

Check out the ensureOneExoSM method.
