The basic requirement for this benchmark is to have SLC 4.5 for the x86_64 architecture installed and running on the hardware. You may use PXE or CD installation from:

http://linuxsoft.cern.ch/scientific/45/x86_64/images/SL/pxeboot/

http://linuxsoft.cern.ch/scientific/45/x86_64/images/SL/boot.iso

Here is a summary of what the configuration must be:

*take the "Personal Desktop" installation
*let the installation procedure "Automatically partion" the disk(s)
*keep the default firewall settings
*put SElinux mode active
*"Install default packages"
*add a username and call it <tt>bench</tt>
*at the CERN customization step select:
**"No, I will do setup myself"
**"Enable checks for updates"

*Login as user <tt>bench</tt>
*Run
<pre>
wget http://mon.iihe.ac.be/trac/t2b/attachment/wiki/Workernode-v0.0.2/bench_1.tar?format=raw -O bench_1.tar; tar -xvf bench_1.tar;./install.sh
</pre>

=== Power Consumption Benchmark ===

This benchmark takes between 10 to 15 minuntes.

*Setup a measurement device between the power supply and the power plug
*Run as <tt>bench</tt>:
<pre>
./start_all.sh power
</pre>
*Collect the measured maximum power consumed before the start (in idle state) and the measured maximum power consumed during the benchmark run.

=== CPU Benchmarks ===

These benchmarks take between 12 to 24 hours and requires no manual intervention.

*Run as <tt>bench</tt>:
<pre>
./start_all.sh all
</pre>
*To check that the benchmarks are finished just run:
