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

* Development Update.  (srao, 15:04:19)
  * Configuration Generation Patch is merged.  (srao, 15:04:36)
  * Results Container patch is updated with changes suggested.  (srao,
    15:05:00)
  * The containers will reside in vswitchperf/tools/docker folder.
    (srao, 15:06:19)
  * Under this there will be 3 subfolders. (a) results (b) deploy (c)
    control/test  (srao, 15:07:34)
  * Sridhar: Focus mostly on Loss Pattern Generation.  (srao, 15:07:55)
  * Pierre: Anca to help vsperf in collecting live results from Ixia
    TGen.  (srao, 15:09:24)
  * Loss Patterns from different Traffic generators - Ixia, STC, T-Rex.
    (srao, 15:11:24)
  * First Complete the T-Rex Live-Results (try lower granularity - in
    ms, else 1 sec).  (srao, 15:13:04)

* Containerizing VSPERF.  (srao, 15:15:38)
  * Deploy and Control there will 2 variations: 1. Interactive 2.
    Automated.  (srao, 15:17:12)
  * Al Morton  (acmacm, 15:17:36)
  * in Interactive the user can do step by step, where as in automated
    once the container starts it will do everything as per the
    configuration.  (srao, 15:17:54)
  * the Automated version will help in integrating with Dovetail and
    X-Testing.  (srao, 15:18:32)
  * in Automated version the user will provide details in the config
    file - such as testcases to run, the host credentials.  (srao,
    15:19:12)
  * Automated Deploy and Interactive Deploy containers are Ready - needs
    minor fixes and additional sanity checks.  (srao, 15:27:47)

* Inputs from IETF Meeting  (srao, 15:32:30)
  * Search algorithms in Virtualization world: Multi-level search (0 and
    'x'), probabilistic loss ratio  with small to large duration.
    (srao, 15:34:45)
  * buffer size assessment - back to back testing.  (srao, 15:35:12)
  * TST009 Compliance: First Start with supporting Benchmarks, then
    Variations in Metrics.  (srao, 15:38:38)
  * ACTION: List the benchmarks and the metrics-variations from TST009.
    Then Check what all can be supported by which TGen.  (srao,
    15:41:03)
  * ACTION: Document the usecase for VSPERF where it can be used for
    cloud dataplane benchmarking and performance testing.  (srao,
    15:49:18)
  * Question: Should we (VSPERF) contribute to chapter-10. All agree
    that answer is YES.  (srao, 15:56:24)



Meeting ended at 16:00:31 UTC.
