(mdgray, 13:13:23) * This would just be Robot and Tempest (mdgray, 13:14:17) * We will need to do additional testing with Yardstick and vsperf (mdgray, 13:15:03) * Functest meeting is at an awkward time for most attendees (mdgray, 13:17:57) * AGREED: Simona and/or Gillian can monitor offline and report any key issues on this call (mdgray, 13:18:15) * There will be a discussion at the release meeting tomorrow in which testing will be discussed.

Fuel Plugin Development (mdgray, 13:28:49) * support from Fuel team and Montreal Pod (mdgray, 13:29:01) * Moved to Fuel 7 and now plugin is recognised by Fuel (mdgray, 13:29:25) * LINK: https://github.com/billyom/fuel-plugin-billy (billyoma, 13:30:53) * LINK: https://github.com/billyom/fuel-plugin-billy (mdgray, 13:31:28) * Still some issues. "Nailgun" is dying. (mdgray, 13:31:28) * Some issues with underlay network configuration (mdgray, 13:31:51) * Long test, debug, deploy cycle (mdgray, 13:32:10) * deploy is taking 1-1.5 hours (mdgray, 13:32:35) * Gillian has got a virtual deployment of 7 up but it is not deploying Billy's plugin. (mdgray, 13:33:26) * 2. DPDK packages (mdgray, 13:34:49) * Billy synced with the SFC project (mdgray, 13:35:19) * SFC has binary deb packages for Native OVS (kernel) for Ubuntu 14.04 (mdgray, 13:36:08) * Source packages would be better to compile on the node to give better performance. However, at this stage anything would be great! :) (mdgray, 13:37:06) * There was an email about project dependencies. (mdgray, 13:37:56) * For OVSNFV, the following were highlighted (mdgray, 13:38:05) * Qemu 2.1.0+ (mdgray, 13:38:13) * Openstack - Kilo (mdgray, 13:38:32) * ODL - Berryllium (mdgray, 13:38:52) * The ODL dependency wont be met as it arrives after Brahmaputra (mdgray, 13:39:28) * There *should* be no specific kernel dependency (mdgray, 13:39:47) * We are tied to Ubuntu because Fuel is for Ubuntu only (mdgray, 13:40:20) * ACTION: Mark to confirm what DPDK version is needed. (mdgray, 13:45:22) * Should be possible to build a debian package using the "dist" Makefile target. Someone should check this. (mdgray, 13:46:36) * LINK: https://github.com/openvswitch/ovs/tree/master/rhel (mdgray, 13:48:04) * LINK: https://github.com/openvswitch/ovs/tree/master/debian (mdgray, 13:48:11) * LINK: https://github.com/openvswitch/ovs/blob/master/INSTALL.Debian.md (mdgray, 13:48:52) * The above link could be useful. (mdgray, 13:49:01) * Fuel deploys Ubuntu 14.04 for Brahmaputra. This is an LTS release. (mdgray, 13:50:39) * OVSNFV has a dependency on this version. (mdgray, 13:50:50) * SFC can build a kernel space package but cant build userspace one (mdgray, 13:51:33) * Others (mdgray, 13:53:52) * qemu --enable-num required for huge-pages, is set on qemu for rel-B. (mdgray, 13:53:55) * Is this a compile-time or run-time parameter? (mdgray, 13:55:35) * effects of various opnfv major deployment options - KVM/QEMU, Neutron w. VLAN/Tunelling(VXLAN/GRE via Fuel CLI).The networking equipment must support VXLAN segmentation. This option supports millions of tenant data networks. (mdgray, 13:56:17) * This is a comment on the test effort. The number of combinations and permutations is growing ... (mdgray, 13:56:58) * This is a general issue across OPNFV (mdgray, 13:57:52) * OVSNFV will need to be very specific about what versions we are compatible with to narrow the scope. (mdgray, 13:58:49) * There may be a way to limit this in Fuel (mdgray, 13:59:28) Meeting ended at 13:59:52 UTC.
