It is an open source Middleware and an n-tier system model which is used to be deployed on multiple physical node and to measure the whole performacne of OPNFV platform. Rubbos can deploy the Apache, tomcat, and DB. Based on the deployment, rubbos gives the pressure to the whole system. When the system reaches to the peak, the throughput will not grow more. This testcase can help to understand the bottlenecks of OPNFV plantform and improve the performance of OPNFV platform. Detailed workflow is illutrated below. .. image:: ../images/Framework_Setup.png :width: 770px :alt: Bottlenecks Framework Setup Preinstall Packages ==================== There is a need to install some packages before running the rubbos, gcc, gettext, g++, libaio1, libaio-dev, make and git are necessary. When the rubbos runs on the OPNFV community continuous integration(CI) system, the required packages are installed automately as shown in the code repository, which is /utils/infra_setup/vm_dev_setup/packages.conf, besides, the packages can be encapsulated in the images initially. If someone wants to use rubbos locally, he/she has to install them by hand, such as in ubuntu 14.04, .. code-block:: bash apt-get update apt-get install gettext How does Rubbos Integrate into Installers ========================================= 1.Community CI System Rubbos has been successfully integrated into fuel and compass with NOSDN scenario in OPNFV community CI system. Heat is used to create 9 instances, which is shown in /utils/infra_setup/heat_template/HOT_create_instance.sh, the 9 instances are used for installing Apache, Tomcat, Mysql, Control, Benchmark and 4 Clients. The tools, such as rubbos, sysstat, oprofile, etc, are installed in these instances to perform the test, the test results are stored in the Benchmark instance initially, then they are copied to the Rubbos_result instance, finally, the test results are transferred to the community dashboard. There's a need to store our pakages as large as M bytes or G bytes size, such as the images, jdk, apache-ant, apache-tomcat, etc, the OPNFV community storage system, Google Cloud Storage, is used, the pakages can be downloaded from https://artifacts.opnfv.org/bottlenecks/rubbos. 2.Local Deployment If someone wants to run the rubbos in his own environment, he/she can keep to the following steps, 2.1 Start up instances by using heat, nova or libvert. In Openstack Environemnt, the heat script can refer /utils/infra_setup/heat_template/HOT_create_instance.sh, if the openstack doesn't support heat module, the script /utils/infra_setup/create_instance.sh can be used. Without Openstack, there's a way to set up instances by using libvert, the scripts are shown under the directory /utils/rubbos_dev_env_setup. The image can be downloaded from the community cloud storage .. code-block:: bash curl --connect-timeout 10 -o bottlenecks-trusty-server.img http://artifacts.opnfv.org/bottlenecks/rubbos/bottlenecks-trusty-server.img 2.2 Ssh into the control node and clone the bottlenecks codes to the root directory. .. code-block:: bash git clone https://git.opnfv.org/bottlenecks /bottlenecks 2.3 Download the packages and decompress them into the proper directory. .. code-block:: bash curl --connect-timeout 10 -o app_tools.tar.gz http://artifacts.opnfv.org/bottlenecks/rubbos/app_tools.tar.gz curl --connect-timeout 10 -o rubbosMulini6.tar.gz http://artifacts.opnfv.org/bottlenecks/rubbos/rubbosMulini6.tar.gz .. code-block:: bash tar zxf app_tools.tar.gz -C /bottlenecks/rubbos tar zxf rubbosMulini6.tar.gz -C /bottlenecks/rubbos/rubbos_scripts 2.4 Ssh into the Control node and run the script .. code-block:: bash source /bottlenecks/rubbos/rubbos_scripts/1-1-1/scripts/run.sh 2.5 Check the test results under the directory /bottlenecks/rubbos/rubbos_results in Control node. The results are stored in the format of xml, move them to the brower chrome, then you can see the results. Test Result Description ======================= In OPNFV community, the result is shown in the following format :: [{'client': 200, 'throughput': 27}, {'client': 700, 'throughput': 102}, {'client': 1200, 'throughput': 177}, {'client': 1700, 'throughput': 252}, {'client': 2200, 'throughput': 323}, {'client': 2700, 'throughput': 399}, {'client': 3200, 'throughput': 473}] The results are transferred to the community database and a map is drawed on the dashboard. Along with the growth of the number of the client, the throughput grows at first, then meets up with a point of inflexion, which is caused by the bottlenecks of the measured system. ..
