+|SDN Controller resilience in HA configuration |
+| |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|test case id | OPNFV_YARDSTICK_TC092: SDN controller resilience and high |
+| | availability HA configuration |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|test purpose | This test validates SDN controller node high availability by |
+| | verifying there is no impact on the data plane connectivity |
+| | when one SDN controller fails in a HA configuration, |
+| | i.e. all existing configured network services DHCP, ARP, L2, |
+| | L3VPN, Security Groups should continue to operate |
+| | between the existing VMs while one SDN controller instance |
+| | is offline and rebooting. |
+| | |
+| | The test also validates that network service operations such |
+| | as creating a new VM in an existing or new L2 network |
+| | network remain operational while one instance of the |
+| | SDN controller is offline and recovers from the failure. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|test method | This test case: |
+| | 1. fails one instance of a SDN controller cluster running |
+| | in a HA configuration on the OpenStack controller node |
+| | |
+| | 2. checks if already configured L2 connectivity between |
+| | existing VMs is not impacted |
+| | |
+| | 3. verifies that the system never loses the ability to |
+| | execute virtual network operations, even when the |
+| | failed SDN Controller is still recovering |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|attackers | In this test case, an attacker called “kill-process” is |
+| | needed. This attacker includes three parameters: |
+| | 1. ``fault_type``: which is used for finding the attacker's |
+| | scripts. It should be set to 'kill-process' in this test |
+| | |
+| | 2. ``process_name``: should be set to sdn controller |
+| | process |
+| | |
+| | 3. ``host``: which is the name of a control node where |
+| | opendaylight process is running |
+| | |
+| | example: |
+| | - ``fault_type``: “kill-process” |
+| | - ``process_name``: “opendaylight-karaf” (TBD) |
+| | - ``host``: node1 |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|monitors | In this test case, the following monitors are needed |
+| | 1. ``ping_same_network_l2``: monitor pinging traffic |
+| | between the VMs in same neutron network |
+| | |
+| | 2. ``ping_external_snat``: monitor ping traffic from VMs to |
+| | external destinations (e.g. google.com) |
+| | |
+| | 3. ``SDN controller process monitor``: a monitor checking |
+| | the state of a specified SDN controller process. It |
+| | measures the recovery time of the given process. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|operations | In this test case, the following operations are needed: |
+| | 1. "nova-create-instance-in_network": create a VM instance |
+| | in one of the existing neutron network. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|metrics | In this test case, there are two metrics: |
+| | 1. process_recover_time: which indicates the maximun |
+| | time (seconds) from the process being killed to |
+| | recovered |
+| | |
+| | 2. packet_drop: measure the packets that have been dropped |
+| | by the monitors using pktgen. |
+| | |

+|test tool | Developed by the project. Please see folder: |
+| | "yardstick/benchmark/scenarios/availability/ha_tools" |
+| | |

+|references | TBD |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|configuration | This test case needs two configuration files: |
+| | 1. test case file: opnfv_yardstick_tc092.yaml |
+| | - Attackers: see above “attackers” discription |
+| | - Monitors: see above “monitors” discription |
+| | - waiting_time: which is the time (seconds) from the |
+| | process being killed to stoping monitors the |
+| | monitors |
+| | - SLA: see above “metrics” discription |
+| | |
+| | 2. POD file: pod.yaml The POD configuration should record |
+| | on pod.yaml first. the “host” item in this test case |
+| | will use the node name in the pod.yaml. |
+| | |

+|test sequence | Description and expected result |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|pre-action | 1. The OpenStack cluster is set up with an SDN controller |
+| | running in a three node cluster configuration. |
+| | |
+| | 2. One or more neutron networks are created with two or |
+| | more VMs attached to each of the neutron networks. |
+| | |
+| | 3. The neutron networks are attached to a neutron router |
+| | which is attached to an external network the towards |
+| | DCGW. |
+| | |
+| | 4. The master node of SDN controller cluster is known. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|step 1 | Start ip connectivity monitors: |
+| | 1. Check the L2 connectivity between the VMs in the same |
+| | neutron network. |
+| | |
+| | 2. Check the external connectivity of the VMs. |
+| | |
+| | Each monitor runs in an independent process. |
+| | |
+| | Result: The monitor info will be collected. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|step 2 | Start attacker: |
+| | SSH to the VIM node and kill the SDN controller process |
+| | determined in step 2. |
+| | |
+| | Result: One SDN controller service will be shut down |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|step 3 | Restart the SDN controller. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|step 4 | Create a new VM in the existing Neutron network while the |
+| | SDN controller is offline or still recovering. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|step 5 | Stop IP connectivity monitors after a period of time |
+| | specified by “waiting_time” |
+| | |
+| | Result: The monitor info will be aggregated |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|step 6 | Verify the IP connectivity monitor result |
+| | |
+| | Result: IP connectivity monitor should not have any packet |
+| | drop failures reported |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|step 7 | Verify process_recover_time, which indicates the maximun |
+| | time (seconds) from the process being killed to recovered, |
+| | is within the SLA. This step blocks until either the |
+| | process has recovered or a timeout occurred. |
+| | |
+| | Result: process_recover_time is within SLA limits, if not, |
+| | test case failed and stopped. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|step 8 | Start IP connectivity monitors for the new VM: |
+| | 1. Check the L2 connectivity from the existing VMs to the |
+| | new VM in the Neutron network. |
+| | |
+| | 2. Check connectivity from one VM to an external host on |
+| | the Internet to verify SNAT functionality. |
+| | |
+| | Result: The monitor info will be collected. |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|step 9 | Stop IP connectivity monitors after a period of time |
+| | specified by “waiting_time” |
+| | |
+| | Result: The monitor info will be aggregated |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|step 10 | Verify the IP connectivity monitor result |
+| | |
+| | Result: IP connectivity monitor should not have any packet |
+| | drop failures reported |
+| | |
++--------------+--------------------------------------------------------------+
+|test verdict | Fails only if SLA is not passed, or if there is a test case |
+| | execution problem. |
+| | |
