How to run a simulation of a control plane with ERSAP backend

Start with the gRPC installation directory and define some environmental variables

export GRPC_INSTALL_DIR=/daqfs/gRPC/installation
export GRPC_JAVA_INSTALL_DIR=/daqfs/gRPC/java_installation
export PATH="$GRPC_INSTALL_DIR/bin:$PATH"
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH="$GRPC_INSTALL_DIR/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH"

Access to ET system files has been made simple by placing them into the gRPC installation

ET lib is in $GRPC_INSTALL_DIR/lib

ET includes are in $GRPC_INSTALL_DIR/include

ET executables are in $GRPC_INSTALL_DIR/bin

ET jar file is in $GRPC_JAVA_INSTALL_DIR/jars

Run the ET system as a fifo. Use 1000, 150kB buffers

cd $GRPC_INSTALL_DIR/bin
./et_start_fifo -f /tmp/fifoEt -d -s 150000 -n 1 -e 1000

Now that it compiles, as an example, implement ERSAP backend reassembler communication of fifo fill percentage to load-balancer control plane

Rename a few files and directories, from helloworld to loadBalancerControl (or whatever you want)
