Thanks Yair,
I will dig into this more. I did try the "network" context, but same error.

[openstack-dev] [rally] Rally boot tests fails with Error Forbidden: It is not allowed to create an interface on external networks

2015-10-20 Thread Behzad Dastur
I have a contrail/OpenStack cloud deployed on which I am trying to run some
rally benchmarks. But I am having trouble getting the rally boot tests to
run. It throws the "Error Forbidden: It is not allowed to create an
interface on external network"

It seems it is trying to create an interface on the external network,
however in this case that operation is not required as the contrail plugin
handles that.

 Is there a way to tell the rally scenario to avoid doing that. SImply put
the operations that need to happen are:

1. nova boot (create private network/ or use private network provided)

2. neutron floating ip create, and assign it to the port eg (neutron
floatingip-create --port-id  )

Here is the error log:

Hi Yair,
The rally version I am using is 0.1.2

> rally --version
0.1.2

Also the task file is as shown below. Do you have an example of the
"network" context to skip creation on the interface on the xternal network?

vagrant@rally:~/rally$ more /vagrant/boot.json

{% set flavor_name = flavor_name or "m1.tiny" %}

{

"NovaServers.boot_server": [

{

"args": {

"flavor": {

"name": "{{flavor_name}}"

},

"image": {

"name": "cirros-0.3.1-x86_64"

Re: [openstack-dev] [rally][users]: Synchronizing between multiple scenario instances.

2014-10-23 Thread Behzad Dastur (bdastur)
Hi Boris,
I am still getting my feet wet with rally so some concepts are new, and did not 
quite get your statement regarding the different load generators. I am 
presuming you are referring to the Scenario runner and the different “types” of 
runs.

What I was looking at is the runner, where we specify the type, times and 
concurrency.  We could have an additional field(s) which would specify the 
synchronization property.

Essentially, what I have found most useful in the cases where we run 
scenarios/tests in parallel;  is some sort of “barrier”, where at a certain 
point in the run you want all the parallel tasks to reach a specific point 
before continuing.

Also, I am also considering cases where synchronization is needed within a 
single benchmark case, where the same benchmark scenario:
creates some vms, performs some tasks, deletes the vm

Just for simplicity as a POC, I tried something with shared memory 
(multiprocessing.Value), which looks something like this:

class Barrier(object):
__init__(self, concurrency)
self.shmem = multiprocessing.Value(‘I’, concurrency)
self.lock = multiprocessing.Lock()

def wait_at_barrier ():
   while self.shmem.value  0:
   time.sleep(1)
   return

def decrement_shm_concurrency_cnt ():
 with self.lock:
 self.shmem.value -=  1


And from the scenario, it can be called as:

scenario:
 -- do some action –
  barrobj.decrement_shm_concurrency_cnt()
 sync_helper.wait_at_barrier()
-- do some action –   -- all processes will do this action at almost the same 
time.

I would be happy to discuss more to get a good common solution.

regards,
Behzad

Behzad,

Unfortunately at this point there is no support of locking between scenarios.


It will be quite tricky for implementation, because we have different load 
generators, and we will need to find
common solutions for all of them.

If you have any ideas about how to implement it in such way, I will be more 
than happy to get this in upstream.


One of the way that I see is to having some kind of chain-of-benchmarks:

1) Like first benchmark is running N VMs
2) Second benchmarking is doing something with all those benchmarks
3) Third benchmark is deleting all these VMs

(where chain elements are atomic actions)

Probably this will be better long term solution.
Only thing that we should understand is how to store those results and how to 
display them.


If you would like to help with this let's start discussing it, in some kind of 
google docs.

Thoughts?


Best regards,
Boris Pavlovic

Ajay,

Ya adding support of  benchmarking OpenStack clouds using ordinary user 
accounts that already exist is one of our majors goals for already more then 
half of year. As I said in my previous message, we will support it soon finally.



Btw we have feature request page:
https://github.com/stackforge/rally/tree/master/doc/feature_request
With the list of features that we are working now.

Hi Boris
Existing users is one thing but according to Rally page it says admin account 
benchmarking is already supported

Rally is on its way to support of benchmarking OpenStack clouds using ordinary 
user accounts that already exist. Rally lacked such functionality (it only 
supported benchmarking either from an admin account or from a bunch of 
temporarily created users), which posed a problem since some deployments don't 
allow temporary users creation. There have been 
twohttps://review.openstack.org/#/c/116766/ 
patcheshttps://review.openstack.org/#/c/119344/ that prepare the code for 
this new functionality. It is going to come very soon - stay tuned.
