Meeting summary
---------------

* first performance related focus can be to get our one off tests that
  people are running locally pushed to test repo and running in releng
  (jamoluhrsen, 16:04:30)
* we need a dashboard.  there is an intern working in this area
  (jamoluhrsen, 16:05:13)
* pramod from intel has a sort of dashboard that collects tempest
  results  (jamoluhrsen, 16:06:42)
* LINK: http://pramodrj07.github.io/odl/  pramod's dashboard
  (jamoluhrsen, 16:07:33)
* should we get access to a physical performance lab hosted by LF?
  (jamoluhrsen, 16:09:52)
* this would be a separate effort than CPERF in OPNFV.  CPERF is
  controller agnostic, whereas this LF perf lab would be ODL specific
  (jamoluhrsen, 16:11:54)
* ACTION: mgkwill to start more conversations on mailing list
  (jamoluhrsen, 16:14:21)
* mgkwill can submit a CFP for performance numbers as we assume we will
  be collecting numbers and again like we did at the end of Beryllium
  release.  (jamoluhrsen, 16:17:59)
* vratko notes that peter is retesting ONOS with new version and ONOS
  performance is much better.  (jamoluhrsen, 16:22:23)
* mgkwill confirms those findings  (jamoluhrsen, 16:22:30)
* ONOS added batch flow programming in newest version.  (jamoluhrsen,
  16:23:20)
* next week we will try to present/summarize all the different upstream
  releng performance tests  (jamoluhrsen, 16:26:33)
* cluster testing  (jamoluhrsen, 16:27:01)
  * cluster tests should start moving to clustermanagment.robot library
    from clusterkeywords.robot  (jamoluhrsen, 16:27:41)
  * in otherwords, clusterkeywords.robot should be considered
    "deprecated"  (jamoluhrsen, 16:28:24)
  * sanjib points out that a new feature is introduced in boron to do
    bulk requests via REST.  (jamoluhrsen, 16:32:03)
  * still not sure what this new feature is providing, need more info.
    (jamoluhrsen, 16:34:00)
  * vratko describes three ways to create a lot of flows 1) restconf
    with container with lots of items.  2) batch method that may be
    unreliable.  3) openflow has implemented RPC batch method,
    bulk-o-matic.  (jamoluhrsen, 16:36:24)
  * ACTION: jamoluhrsen to look in to issue where slowly bringing up
    controllers in a cluster means clustering is broken.  (jamoluhrsen,
    16:40:33)
  * LINK:
    https://lists.opendaylight.org/pipermail/integration-dev/2016-May/006616.html
    to see discussion about controllers not able to be in a healthy
    cluster if they come up too far apart  (jamoluhrsen, 16:41:33)
  * jamoluhrsen points out that OVSDB cluster tests consistently fail,
    but no traction from project to get the bugs fixed  (jamoluhrsen,
    16:52:32)
  * openflowplugin clustering CSIT has some failures and bugs are filed
    for them.  (jamoluhrsen, 16:57:37)
  * new netconf suite for clustering has been merged.  open bug is there
    for the failures.  (jamoluhrsen, 16:58:29)
  * jozef may be going away from test work.  (jamoluhrsen, 16:59:48)
