Meeting summary --------------- * Roll Call (mdgray_, 14:03:33) * Mark Gray (mdgray_, 14:03:41) * Agenda (mdgray_, 14:04:31) * Billy O'Mahony (billyo, 14:04:32) * LINK: https://etherpad.opnfv.org/p/ovsnfv-meet (mdgray_, 14:04:35) * Fuel Demo (mdgray_, 14:06:08) * Billy presents demo slides (mdgray_, 14:07:27) * outlines goal of brahmaputra release (mdgray_, 14:07:40) * Billy ran tests using two versions of OPNFV. One with the Fuel plugin for OVS/DPDK and one without OVS/DPDK (mdgray_, 14:09:15) * Some benchmarks have been done with OVS in an isolated manner. These tests are more "realistic" as they are run in a real deployment. (mdgray_, 14:10:03) * Demo results show the difference bettwen the two (mdgray_, 14:11:04) * Initial results are good: Throughput x 3 and latency / 5 (mdgray_, 14:11:59) * Tests are netperf UDP tests (mdgray_, 14:12:10) * OVS/DPDK latency is very smooth but there are latency spikes in longer time intervals (mdgray_, 14:13:51) * Tom Herbert (tfherbert, 14:14:21) * Sorry I am late. Are tests published? (tfherbert, 14:14:44) * In Rel-B test there are about 10-15 tests in the CI (mdgray_, 14:15:16) * There are about 40 tests in Yardstick (mdgray_, 14:15:25) * Don't know if that will change for Colorado (mdgray_, 14:15:36) * Billy has run all tests but the results are not published yet (mdgray_, 14:16:36) * He will do a more formal analysis this week and aim to present results next week. (mdgray_, 14:18:23) * For Brahmaputra all tests seem to pass (mdgray_, 14:18:45) * For Colorado goal, all tests should pass. (mdgray_, 14:19:05) * Need to enable tests for CI-pipeline. (mdgray_, 14:19:29) * Functest tests seem to pass but need to confirm. This could be a future readout at this forum. (mdgray_, 14:20:49) * x3 wrt what? (tfherbert, 14:20:52) * Yardstick tests uses ubunto cloud image that is modified for yardstick (mdgray_, 14:22:28) * image uploaded to glance (mdgray_, 14:22:58) * heat used to run tests (mdgray_, 14:23:06) * Grafana to display the results. (mdgray_, 14:23:13) * Same methodology should work with Apex (mdgray_, 14:23:33) * Billy showing live output from montreal pod (mdgray_, 14:23:58) * Billy presents possible demo and yardstick next steps (mdgray_, 14:27:02) * Chunghan asks if there is any background traffic (mdgray_, 14:29:45) * There isnt, this is sending traffic between VMs on the same host. It is one the Yardstick testcases (mdgray_, 14:30:33) * These tests are UDP tests (mdgray_, 14:32:03) * Fuel Update (mdgray_, 14:32:23) * Yardstick and Functest tests will be run and the results will be documented to determine gaps (mdgray_, 14:33:01) * Focus on Brahmaputra for performance as we have confidence that Brahmputra works correctly (mdgray_, 14:33:54) * Same for functest (mdgray_, 14:34:09) * ACTION: Billy: Check if our scenario will be run nightly against C-release (mdgray_, 14:35:54) * Colorado will need to be setup and tested to ensure it still functions correctly (mdgray_, 14:37:29) * Manual test would be more efficient to do this before CI is set up. This will help expose any gotchas such as cabling, issues with installing the fuel iso (mdgray_, 14:38:51) * Documentation (mdgray_, 14:39:06) * General OPNFV installation document could have been better. For colorado, each scenario would have its own installation guide. (mdgray_, 14:40:54) * This would be based off a template installation guide for the os-nosdn-nofeature-ha scenario (mdgray_, 14:41:23) * We are waiting on this template from the documentation project. (mdgray_, 14:41:39) * Project Milestones update (mdgray_, 14:42:13) * David Mc Bride is looking for project milestone updates (mdgray_, 14:42:28) * LINK: https://wiki.opnfv.org/display/SWREL/Releases+Colorado+Projects (mdgray_, 14:42:43) * ACTION: Mark to update project milestones (mdgray_, 14:43:14) * ACTION: Mark to check the scenario dependencies to ensure that our scenario is dependent on the ovs-nsh plugin with a particular configuration (instead of the deprecated ovs plugin) (mdgray_, 14:44:41) * Billy will also highlight this to the fuel team but we might need to inform Fatih (mdgray_, 14:45:05) * Apex updates (mdgray_, 14:45:50) * Tom will provide updates offline. (mdgray_, 14:46:17) * We are passed feature freeze. Has it been deployed/ (mdgray_, 14:46:35) * It would be nice to get a demo. (mdgray_, 14:46:42) * Feature development (mdgray_, 14:47:12) * Thanks for the comments (mdgray_, 14:47:17) * Mark needs to update based on the comments. (mdgray_, 14:47:24) * Mark got some other comments in private via email so I will update based on them aswell (mdgray_, 14:47:57) * Other topics (mdgray_, 14:48:49) * Is there a link for good general OPNFV documentation (mdgray_, 14:49:10) * LINK: https://www.opnfv.org/opnfv-brahmaputra-fuel-users (billyo, 14:49:50) * Full installation required a lot of infrastructure for bare metal (mdgray_, 14:52:08) * Virtual install needs to be tested for OVSNFV with colorado release.
